“Photography is inherently an analytic medium, where a painter starts with a blank canvas, and every that mark she/ he makes on the canvas, makes it more complex. So painting is inherently synthetic, photography is the opposite, a photographer starts with the whole world, and every decision brings order to it. To my mind a photograph is solved, more than it is composed. A photographer combines a perception of the world, a perception of photography, of art, of perception, about themselves. A photographer combines a perception with an understanding of these perceptions, essentially with an understanding of photography's limitations.”
