“I'd like the photographs to potentially be meaningful to a wide range of people. They do not grow out of the reportage mode, this was always clear to me. Personal imaginations blend into each other and create our visual cultures. No one is a neutral observer of this field.”
The photographer stresses that images should resonate broadly, arise from personal imagination, and acknowledge that no observer is neutral, thus shaping visual culture through subjective lenses.
In simple terms: Photos blend imagination; observers aren’t neutral.
Subjectivity drives visual culture.
