[...] My documentary work has been where I want to take it back to I want the rawness and grit I had years ago. I can find it again I'm sure.
Honestly I'm more comfortable shooting film. It's like an old pair of shoes. It's just comfortable.
An example of what technical expectations have done to me, my wife gave me a Holga a few years ago. The first thing I did was tape up the light leaks and figure out how to make the lens sharper and figure exposure and adjust with ND filters. I did this then I realized I had just sterized the camera. I took the imperfections away as much as I could and destroyed te art. Let's say my wife who's a painter is counseling me. I'm in artistic rehab now. I'm learning to accept imperfections and enjoy the beauty of the flaws.
