From the artist: "Since the photograph has such a strong connection to 'real life' and particularly to memory . the artist photographer should not be seduced into a desire to conform to a preconceived notion about it as a medium. Society will continue to look for pictures (and literature) that confirm previously held truths and ideas. In that narrowness, even reality is held accountable. 'That is as pretty as a picture.' Any deviation becomes suspect. Photography, on the other hand, does not have to suffer from such a rational philosophical dictum as observed reality. The photographer need not illustrate society's temporary truths. There is no morality in mixing media -- no positive or negative mark. The right color process does not exist, nor does the perfect black-and-white print. The ideal subject is an illusion, as is the perfect archival print. Art is an attitude that produces an object by using media. Media does not produce Art.".
