I Think All Art Is About Control,

I Believe That You've Got To Love Your Work So Much That It Is All You Want To Do.

People — Running From Unhappiness, Hiding In Power — Are Locked Within Their Reputations, Ambitions, Beliefs.

The Pictures Have A Reality For Me That The People Don't. It Is Through The Photographs That I Know Them.

You Can't Get At The Thing Itself, The Real Nature Of The Sitter, By Stripping Away The Surface. You Can Only Get Beyond The Surface By Working With The Surface. All That You Can Do Is Manipulate That Surface - Gesture, Costume, Expression - Radically And Correctly.

My Portraits Are More About Me Than They Are About The People I Photograph.
