Specialist note

'My technical approach has always been that I want to approximate my pictures to what it feels like to look through my eye. I say 'feel’ because I once interviewed an optics professor, and he showed me what the eye actually sees. It’s much blurrier, but it’s computed in the brain into a much more intelligible thing.' WOLFGANG TILLMANS
