"I don‘t trust words. I trust pictures." | "I work much more like a forensic photographer in a certain way, collecting evidence. I‘ve started to take more still lifes, like a police photographer, collecting evidence as a witness. I‘ve started to borrow a different strategy than that of the classic photojournalist. The work is much more factual and much less about good photography. I don‘t care that much anymore about ‘good photography.‘ I‘m gathering evidence for history, so that we remember." |
