I don't know how much a photograph can add to a biography, the way a film or writing or narrative medium could. Because it's a frozen image.

A lot of the photography I'm doing and thinking about is directed at Instagram.

I wanted to make pictures that felt natural, that felt like seeing, that didn’t feel like taking something in the world and making a piece of art out of it.

Even in ordinary reproduction [photography] verges on facsimile.

I was photographing every meal I ate, every person I met, every waiter or waitress who served me, every bed I slept in, every toilet I used.

As not a native, I have the advantage of not seeing scenes habitually. I can see things fresh.

I do what feels natural, but I can't say I haven't thought about it.
