Diane Arbus’s Ideas on Her Work

“My favorite thing is to go where I’ve never been.”

“The more specific you are, the more general it’ll be.”

“A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know.”

“I never have taken a picture I intended. They’re always better or worse.”

“I work from awkwardness. By that I mean I don’t like to arrange things. If I stand in front of something, instead of arranging it, I arrange myself.”
