"To be out and about, camera in hand focusses my eye and mind as a form of understanding: I see. Something catches my eye and references a thought, or pattern of thoughts. An inner archive is riffled, a picture, a phrase, a dream is unearthed and this in turn infuses my images as I continue to work. Teasing these images to the page, as printed surface and sequence is what I bring to book as a form of visual reading, to make sense of something. Not for all time, but for that particular time and experience."
