“I photograph what interests me at a time. Often these things are not part of my life, but i feel curious. A camera is in a sense like a passport, or like a torch that brings light to the subject you chase. It is both the cause and effect of the process…it is the justification i have to photograph things that i wouldn’t want to see, and it is also the instrument that brings those images back to my hands. I often think that what i photograph are fantasies, but i have to remind myself that they are real, that i have been there. In a sense the camera has been both my blessing and a curse.”
