"It’s trite to say that the world has gotten smaller in the age of globalization, but my travels have told me that it’s wrong to think that this means... there is some kind of uniform world culture."

When I was just starting out, I met Cartier-Bresson. He wasn't young in age but, in his mind, he was the youngest person I'd ever met. He told me it was necessary to trust my instincts, be inside my work, and set aside my ego. In the end, my photography turned out very different to his, but I believe we were coming from the same place.
