The world is shrinking as we see more and more of it in the media, and the more we see of the world, the smaller we are, the more aware we are of how insignificant any one of us is.

Any artist that's involved in their work is inevitably going to have a focus in what they do.

I will always admit immediately to what’s obvious, which is that homo sapiens is inherently erotic or sensual from birth.

I'm an artist that's attracted to a specific way of seeing and a way of being.

Some of the people that I photographed as sticks became much more voluptuous, much rounder, in some cases dramatically so, and I think they're even more beautiful.

But the truth is that Homo sapiens is a sensual species. I think all species are, to one degree or another.

Different members of different cultures will think that some things are beautiful.
