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.

My work is mostly about memory. It is very important to me that everybody that I have been close to in my life I make photographs of them.

I'm not ashamed of my body and you know everything in the fashion world, if I was vulnerable to it, could drive me crazy. I think it produces so much self-hatred.

I think the wrong things are kept private

I wasn't there [in U.S] when the city was bombed but it seems to have changed my friends.

I usually work really instinctively and it's afterwards that I think about what it means. I don't know consciously that I have these themes that run through my work.

American magazines are becoming very patriotic beyond belief to the point that I can't live there any more.
