Joel Meyerowitz (*) reveals in The Young Gun Meets the Living Legend (*):
Every time you take a picture, you’re saying yes to what you see.From an Interview (*) with Olivia Bee (*).
There should be a degree of consciousness about who you are in the world at that moment, a kind of integrated consciousness.
It’s not blind luck, so if one can find what it is that makes you conscious, what gives you the pleasure of being alive at that moment, I feel that is what leads you to your own identity.
Because in the long run, your individual identity will be revealed by the strength of the photographs you make in one year, ten years, 15 years—there’s a string.
They’re like little jewels on the string and they carry all the messages that you were excited by when the world spoke to you.
