“I began shooting with a pinhole cameras because I wanted to simplify my photography approach as much as possible. I wanted to go back to the simple source, to the basis of the photographic image creation. A box, a hole and a piece of photosensible material.

“I can get very close to a basic process of picture making if I use a homemade pinhole camera.
