Quotes

• “My work comes first, reasons for it follow.”
• “Ephemeral work made outside, for and about a day, lies at the core of my art and its making must be kept private.”
• “You must have something new in a landscape as well as something old, something that's dying and something that's being born.”
• “A snowball is simple, direct and familiar to most of us. I use this simplicity as a container for feelings and ideas that function on many levels. Occasionally I have come across a last patch of snow on top of a mountain in late May or June. There's something very powerful about finding snow in summer. It's as if the whole of winter has drained through that white hole — a concentration of winter.”
• “Ideas must be put to the test. That's why we make things, otherwise they would be no more than ideas. There is often a huge difference between an idea and its realisation. I've had what I thought were great ideas that just didn't work. Sometimes it's difficult to say if something has worked or not. Photography is a way of putting distance between myself and the work which sometimes helps me to see more clearly what it is that I have made.”
• “Movement, change, light, growth, and decay are the life-blood of nature, the energies that I try to tap through my work.”
