My work is about seeing - seeing things like they haven't been seen before.

With photography, you zero in; you put a lot of energy into short moments, and then you go on to the next thing.

I want to see something I've never seen before.

I recorded that because it happened to me. I wasn't making a point.

People have done pornographic pictures forever, but most of the people who involve themselves in explicit sexuality aren't really artists.

I was a Catholic boy, I went to church every Sunday. A church has a certain magic and mystery for a child. It still shows in how I arrange things. It's always little altars.

I never liked photography. Not for the sake of photography. I like the object. I like the photographs when you hold them in your hand.
