I've done a lot of commercial work. I'm the complete photographer.

All good work has magic in it, and addresses the mind in a subtle way.

Trust that little voice in your head that says 'Wouldn't it be interesting if...'; And then do it.

My work is about my life as an event, and I find myself to be very temporal, transient.

I already know what things look like - I don't want description. People believe in appearances, and I don't believe in appearances at all.

Even in the deepest love relationship - when lovers say 'I love you' to each other - we don't really know what we're saying, because language isn't equal to the complexity of human emotions.

All good children's books, I think, address metaphysical issues in some kind of way.

The only thing I know anything about are my own fantasies and anxieties. I don't trust my eyes. I consider myself to be a short-story writer.

Photography does deal with 'truth' or a kind of superficial reality better than any of the other arts, but it never questions the nature of reality - it simply reproduces reality. And what good is that when the things of real value in life are invisible?

Photographers usually want to photograph facts and things. But I'm interested in the nature of the thing itself. A photograph of someone sleeping tells me nothing about their dream state; a photograph of a corpse tells me nothing about the nature of death. My work is about my life as an event, and I find myself to be very temporal, transient.
