[I]n general, my work is less about expanding the possibilities of photography than about re-investing it with a truer perception of things by returning to a simple method, one that photography had from the beginning of its existence.
Thomas StruthI wanted to make photographs in which everything was so complex and detailed that you could look at them forever and never see everything.
Thomas StruthFor me, making a photograph is mostly an intellectual process of understanding people or cities and their historical and phenomenological connections. At that point the photo is almost made, and all that remains is the mechanical process.
Thomas StruthThe point at which the photograph ceases to function as a metaphor is the point at which it is free to propose an experiential model.
