‘The photographer insists that he is “too lazy” to use lighting equipment and doesn’t see the point in a laborious set-up. He prefers ambient light (as demonstrated in his book, “The Magic of Available Light: Still Life Calendars”) and warns against artificial lighting that renders the photograph “too staged”.’  Johanna Poblete interview in Frame One, Volume 6 / 2013 / Issue 3 /
