Description
Framed black and white print of woman and a child. "It's always their eyes first. I try to capture something in their eyes into my picture. I love to watch people. I love people, so taking pictures is an expression of my feeling towards people. "I used to work for an American newspaper. They used to have a problem with the way my counterparts and I take pictures - the way I compose frames and the way I use the shadows. They were saying that there was too much negative space. I had a hard time explaining to them that negative space has a meaning too. I thought about the way Japanese art and probably some other Asian art use space. Negative space has more meaning. The emphasis is on simple form.
