Quote Reflections: Paul Strand

In knowing oneself you are given an altruistic interdependence from the world. Your photographs are visual documentation of your views as a human being living in the world. You can be influenced, and affected by what you photograph, but what Strand is saying is that you can't be corrupted by what you see, you must have an intrinsic resolution of Self. The reality about your true self is a place that is untouchable by anyone or anything, it is where your source of right and wrong must come from and where your photographs must come from.
