I think it is an anarchistic idea to have information on the front and the back. Normally if you add information to information, you have more information.

Photographs are still always depictions, it's just that for my generation the model for the photograph is probably not reality any more, but images we have of that reality.

I received my training at an art academy, so what I produce is art. That's what is artistic about my photographs.

I've been collecting photographs since I don't know when, for a long time, for different reasons. You can find them on eBay and when we were browsing through the shops there were images that attracted me. These are all historical images because these days they're all digital. They don't exist anymore.

If things are the way they are, why should I try to make them look different?

My images are not images of reality, but show a kind of second reality, the image of the image.
