reveal poetic

57. “I’ve spent the last 25 years of
my photographic career
investigating movement and its
expressive potential. My
inspiration has always been
photography’s ability to stop
time and reveal what the naked
eye cannot see. My interest in
photography is not to capture an
image I see or even have in my
mind, but to explore the
potential of moments
