I love the drama of black and white, the interplay of shadow and light, its ‘texture’ and feel, its demonstrative attitude - the feeling that I get that tells me ‘I can look at you and find something different-new-grabbing, each time I look at you’: you help me see better. Marcel Proust said, ‘The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new sights- but in looking with new eyes’. Black and white photography or Monochromatic photography helps me ‘see with new eyes’.
