| Some of his Quotations: |
“I often see the materials of photography as being a type of terrain.
Emulsions, liquid developers, silver salts, and fixers interact, and I
construct a landscape that I need to first explore in my mind’s eye if I
am to make it manifest as an artful image in silver.”
|
"Photography is a medium, a language, through which I might come to
experience directly, live more more closely with, the interaction
between myself and nature."
