I don't think I am going to do pictures which are anything like Renaissance art.

The complete disregard for the camera's presence indicates its complete saturation in their lives. The subject neither notices nor seems to care that someone has been invited into their private moment.

Usually people just do their own work. But I want to deal with the place and what it means to show in a mental hospital.

I'm very flattered when people I respect like my work. It's like a dream of a little kid when somebody I idolised likes my work.

I feel like if I started to use it [camera] that way, it would be like a sin almost. I never show people ugly pictures I take of them. I usually destroy them. So even if I like it, and they don't, it doesn't get shown.

I like it [Rotterdam] much better than Amsterdam which is too much like a postcard. It's too cute for me. Rotterdam is more real, it's got a stomach.

I also met Dominique Sanda, who I always worshipped.
