from Heads, 2008-
"In 1989, I began working in total darkness, using a small flashlight as the sole light source to create a series of close-up portraits of friends' faces... The information is accumulated sequentially on one sheet of film. Just as a movie unfolds in real time, so I build the image by exposing one part of the person after another with my tiny light. If I add more light, it emphasizes that body part, conversely, not enough light and that area never becomes visible."
