My photography at its purest is about response, about visual exploration, about discovery.
On one level, if I knew what it was I wanted in advance, I'm not sure I would chose
photography as a medium. Part of what excites me about photography is its very
uncertainty, the fact that it is not just the photographer, but the vagaries of the world that result in the photograph. If I had a greater inkling of just what I wanted in advance, why not choose a medium where there is much greater imaginative control, like painting?
