When you organize your work and look back at your entire production, it may feel like you're looking at a straight line, but in fact it's nothing like that. The work is very experimental and most of the time it develops like branches. I usually see a capillary, like a tree shape where there are... branches that sort of move because you're not tending to them.
Vik MunizIf you find an idea without form, please let me know because I would love to take a picture of it.
Vik MunizI hate to say I'm a photographer, because I learned photography as I went along. But I also hate to say I'm a painter, a draftsman, even an artist. I think it's good when you're confused about what you are; it means you haven't defined yourself as an artist yet.
Vik MunizPerhaps the first photograph ever taken, Niรฉpce's view of the rooftops over Saint-Loup-de-Varennes, was a truly pure photograph. The second one he took, he was already comparing nature to the first photograph he had taken.
Vik MunizThe moment when one thing turns into another is the most beautiful moment. A combination of sounds turns into music. And that applies to everything.
