[My] goal as an artist is to create increasingly complex images with greater and greater clarity of form and intensity of vision.

Black and White is essentially an abstract way to interpret and transform what one might refer to as reality. My purpose in taking photographs over the past forty years has ultimately been about defining myself. It has been fundamentally a psychological and existential journey.

Nothing is staged. And nothing is already there. Everything is transformed through the camera.

I never think about a photo before I start it. I try to let my mind relax, and then when I get there I do it.

If an artist is one who spends his life trying to define his being, I guess I would have to call myself an artist.

My best Pictures are the ones I don’t understand.
