To Photograph Reality Is To Photograph Nothing.

We Live In A Culture Where The One Who Shouts The Loudest Gets The Most Attention. It's Not In The Vulgar, It's Not In The Shock That One Finds Art. And It's Not The Excessively Beautiful. It's In Between; It's In Nuance.

Most Portraits Are Lies. People Are Rarely What They Appear To Be, Especially In Front Of A Camera. You Might Know Me Your Entire Lifetime And Never Reveal Yourself To Me. To Interpret Wrinkles As Character Is Insult Not Insight.

I Believe In The Imagination. What I Cannot See Is Infinitely More Important Than What I Can See.

If You Look At A Photograph, And You Think, 'my Isn't That A Beautiful Photograph,' And You Go On To The Next One, Or 'isn't That Nice Light?' So What? I Mean What Does It Do To You Or What's The Real Value In The Long Run? What Do You Walk Away From It With? I Mean, I'd Much Rather Show You A Photograph That Makes Demands On You, That You Might Become Involved In On Your Own Terms Or Be Perplexed By.

The Question Of Truth Is Forever In The Air, And People Look For It With Particular Fervor In Art.
