I love fashion, beauty, glamour. It's the mark of civilisation.

The key is to photograph your obsessions, whether that’s old people’s hands or skyscrapers. Think of a blank canvas, because that’s what you’ve got, and then think about what you want to see. Not anyone else.

For me, it's easier to like more things than to dislike them I'm not a critic in that sense. I find it easier to like more, to be more open and enjoy more things, which has given me more opportunities.

I'll let criticism spoil breakfast, but I don't let it affect my lunch.

I am not God. But I can only do my role here on this planet. The role I feel I was given since I was a kid was to be making art and I only wanted to give and I never let money be my God.

The adornment of the body is a human need. I don't see anything superficial about it unless your life becomes very materialistic.

What's shocking is cruelty and torture, and that's become our entertainment. Kids can play violent video games, but God forbid they look at a naked woman. That's pornography, that's perverse. No!

We are in this time of corporations being so greedy and global. Some people want to call it the apocalypse. When I was born it was half the people on the planet. It has doubled in my life time. This is not sustainable for the earth of course we are going somewhere. So we have to live preciously, we have to live each day with care!

I like the consistency of having people in my life for a long time.

We're bombarded with images. Take the time to stop and look at something then connect with them and maybe they're thinking the same thing, I used a lot of devices to catch the eye of people who have seen a lot of stuff, having worked in advertising and in editorial. I have learned to get someone to stop and look at something, that language.

I like the Eiffel Tower in Las Vegas more than the actual one.

I believe in a visual language that should be as strong as the written word.

I think we're in a post-pornographic time and nothing seems shocking, but everything remains carnal no matter what you do.

I'm part of what I consider the entertainment industry. For my photos to be entertaining, they have to be provocative and new.
