I spend a lot of time writing. I get inspiration from texts rather than images.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Writing is a creatively rewarding occupation but for me very time consuming.
I think of myself as a writer who photographs. Images, for me, can be considered poems, short stories or essays. And I've always thought the best place for my photographs was inside books of my own creation.
I write books, I write for comic books, I give lectures... I live. And when the opportunity comes to do a picture, I do a picture.
I suppose I have an active imagination, and writing allows me to live it out.
My works really begin in a very simple way. Sometimes it's an image, and sometimes it's words I might write, like a fragment of a poem.
I started writing because I found I could spend more time in my own imagination by doing that than I could by reading.
I've always really enjoyed writing different things because I get bored very easily.
I get so much inspiration from my travels, but I also started an exercise where I write down so many words every week. Then I begin crossing them off. We create a grid of words and also images, but words for me are more ample because you can interpret them your own way.
I think with pictures; I'm a very lousy writer. If I write without pictures, I become this pathetic chick sitting somewhere trying to be interesting.
I'm not as good a writer as I'd like to be; therefore, I like to use images to tell stories.
