Film is the manipulative medium par excellence. When you think back on the history of film and the 20th century, you see the propaganda that's been made.

People go to the movies instead of moving. Hollywood characters are supposed to have all the adventures for everybody in America, while everybody in America sits in a dark room and watches them have them. ↗

Even if there are instances in which it can be mistook by onlookers, never fool yourself into using misunderstood genius as an excuse to be a fool. ↗

It is my intention to present - through the medium of photography - intuitive observations of the natural world which may have meaning to the spectators. ↗

He who has the audacity to stop you from dreaming is he who had given you the imaginations to think, but not those who watch you as you explore the dreams! ↗
