I aim to create photographs that are closer to paintings than anything I could have imagined for a photograph

Transcript from a recorded interview in the studio, 2016.

" Closer to painting than anything I could imagine for a photograph."

" The only strange thing about my practice is that I only want to produce these kind of pictures, and only this way. It can be done in other ways, but it would not be the same; not at all: through darkroom or digital manipulation of some kind, but this does not appeal to me. I have no desire to manipulate anything other than these liquid mechanics ; if I used these other methods, tricks would occur to me and I would be able to repeat them endlessly, to me that would be horrific and the pictures no good.

The scene is there, created underwater; now I want to see the places it will go, new and unrepeatable. It appeals to me to be able to handle the work like this; not knowing what is coming. "
