What I've always liked about photography is that it's such a direct way of showing what's on my mind. I see something. I show it to you.

The career has to support the making and can offer a platform, can offer you a voice in the world. And that's an incredible thing. But it's complicated and seductive and weird and tricky. I think you have to keep figuring that out your whole life.

By nature, I'm a little distractible. I get very overwhelmed by the world.

I don't think any of us thought Donald Trump could get this far.

What attracts me in photography is not so much a fine arts approach, but rather photographs as documents... All the ways in which human beings have documented the world in an attempt to order it, in an attempt to consume it or rule it or hang on to it in some sense.

I don't quite understand how a generation and a half after the Second World War we've gotten where we are now.

I like getting stuff out of the way so you can see something clearly, see it sharply, have it be new again.
