“I perceived the photograph as the most objective kind of image possible, an instrument that allowed me to appropriate objects from reality (for example, a nail) and then print them on a wall; or I could put situations together, take a photograph of them, and insert the photograph into a print. It was a time in which photography was still quite separate from the other visual arts. And so I used it as a vehicle for displacing images into and between my pieces.”
