My hope is that the work is in some way counter-pinup. A pinup asks you to suspend interest in who the person is and occupy yourself entirely with looking at the body and fantasizing about what you could do with that body, completely ignoring how the person might feel about it.

I found myself serving a sentence of public denial from the very second the raid on my apartment happened.

Physical beauty is such a strange thing.

If somebody's pointing a trembling finger at your pants and saying you shouldn't be doing that, follow that finger back, go up the arm and look at the head that's behind it, because there's almost always something fairly woolly in there.

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

It's really, really hard to make it as a fine-art photographer exclusively.

What I'm good at is making art.
