A Portrait Isn't A Fact

I See Pictures Of Myself And I Always Knew That What I Was Feeling Didn't Look Like That Guy In The Pictures.

We All Perform. It's What We Do For Each Other All The Time, Deliberately Or Unintionally. It's A Way Of Telling About Ourselves In The Hope Of Being Recognized As What We'd Like To Be.--performance

All Photographs Are Accurate. None Of Them Is The Truth.

A Portrait Photographer Depends Upon Another Person To Complete His Picture. The Subject Imagined, Which In A Sense Is Me, Must Be Discovered In Someone Else Willing To Take Part In A Fiction He Cannot Possibly Know About.

Snapshots That Have Been Taken Of Me Working Show Something I Was Not Aware Of At All, That Over And Over Again I'm Holding My Own Body Or My Own Hands Exactly Like The Person I'm Photographing. I Never Knew I Did That, And Obviously What I'm Doing Is Trying To Feel, Actually Physically Feel, The Way He Or She Feels At The Moment I'm Photographing Them In Order To Deepen The Sense Of Connection.
