I'm constantly working on these edges of photography, either to employ so much information or reduce information to the point of collapse.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Part of the role of photography is to exaggerate, and that is an aspect that I have to puncture. I do that by showing the world as I really find it.
I think the best pictures are often on the edges of any situation, I don't find photographing the situation nearly as interesting as photographing the edges.
To me, that is the essence of me as a photographer. It is those ideas, working with them, formulating them and eventually putting them down on paper, photographing them and then going on to the next step.
I think that one of the things that I can do is I seem to have the ability to zoom in super tight for very small details, but then jump back for sort of that big picture perspective. And I think that ultimately, that's one of my strengths, because you have - every detail matters.
Photographs are two-dimensional. I work in four dimensions.
Photography is about finding out what can happen in the frame. When you put four edges around some facts, you change those facts.
There are some elements of digital photography that I don't really like, such as the fact that you see the results immediately.
I've been working with photography for many years.
Sometimes I enjoy just photographing the surface because I think it can be as revealing as going to the heart of the matter.
Visual ideas combined with technology combined with personal interpretation equals photography. Each must hold it's own; if it doesn't, the thing collapses.
