My black-and-white work is more of a celebration, and the color work became more of a critique of society.

In the '70s, in Britain, if you were going to do serious photography, you were obliged to work in black-and-white. Color was the palette of commercial photography and snapshot photography.

Color can do anything that black-and-white can.

Black and white creates a strange dreamscape that color never can.

I prefer to work with grey characters rather than black and white.

When you photograph people in color, you photograph their clothes. But when you photograph people in Black and white, you photograph their souls!
