Caleb Azumah Nelson
“I know I'm a photographer, but if someone else says I'm that, it changes things because what they think about me isn't what I think about me.”
Caleb Azumah Nelson, Open Water

Vaddey Ratner
“A story, I had learned, through my own constant knitting and reknitting of remembered words, can lead us back to ourselves, to our lost innocence, and in the shadow it casts over our present world, we begin to understand what we only intuited in our naivété - that while all else may vanish, love is our one eternity. It reflects itself in joy and grief, in my fathers sudden knowledge that he would not live to protect me, and in his determination to leave behind a part of himself - his spirit, his humanity - to illuminate my path, give light to my darkened world. He carved his silhouette in the memory of the sky for me to return to again and again.”
Vaddey Ratner, In the Shadow of the Banyan

Vaddey Ratner
“It’s a gift to imagine heaven, and a rebirth to actually glimpse it.”
Vaddey Ratner, In the Shadow of the Banyan

“DON’T BE AFRAID TO TAKE THE PAST HEAD ON.”
Tracey Emin, Strangeland

“It’s now six a.m. and I’m smoking. Oh yeah, Tracey: it’s all going so fucking well. The lonely princess. Carbon monoxide is feeding my soul.”
Tracey Emin, Strangeland
