I believe that the very process of looking can make a thing beautiful.

I made a photograph of a garden in Kyoto, the Zen garden, which is a rectangle. But a photograph taken from any one point will not show, well it shows a rectangle, but not with ninety degree angles.

What an artist is trying to do for people is bring them closer to something, because of course art is about sharing. You wouldn't be an artist unless you wanted to share an experience, a thought.

Just 'cuz a kid is crying doesn't mean it's a conversation worth crying over.

Summer set lip to earth's bosom bare, and left the flushed print in a poppy there.
