I grew up in a bus, traveled with various circuses and freak shows. I was a trapeze artist, and that was my dream. We just traveled the whole world, me and my mom and my little brothers and sisters. It was an adventure.

The circus itself is my personal ideal entertainment venue.

I'm somebody who gets a lot of inspiration from dreams.

This circus games aspect has existed since the beginning of my career.

I could spend my whole life photographing circuses. They combine everything I'm interested in - they're ironic, poetic, and corny at the same time. There's also something about a circus that's magical, sentimental, and almost tragic, like a Fellini film.

For a long time, I debated about whether I would make movies or join the circus and work as a clown.

I actually build my dreams around the dancers I've got in my company.

I am inspired by show girls and Vegas. I was a cabaret performer, so that's where all that influence comes from.

When I was a kid I joined the circus. I did that. It is true. But it's not like you think. There was a guy, he had his own circus. His name was Carol Jacobs and he owned it. It was a small thing.
