About this work

“The camera allows me to enter other people's lives. It is an extraordinary tool to record experiences of the world. We used to think that everything was possible through photography. I still use it to photograph and understand the way things are, to learn about the things I do not really know.”
Chris Steele-Perkins, 2004
