    Great interview. Favorite quote... “Its not my job to create meaning, but to charge the air so meaning can occur” - Todd Hido

    most important line at 14:58 "Print out your photographs". Made the world of difference for me once I started printing my work

      100% true. You don't see it for yourself - unless you print it out. A PC screen means nothing - its nothing haptic, to see, with your own, naked eyes. I've printed some 20-30 pictures on canvas, or alu dibond from 30x20 to 120x80cm sizes during the past >2 decades for friends & family, and they like it.

    “The meaning of the image resides in the viewer. Ambiguity is an amazing tool for art.
    You can’t control what people think. Why even try? It’s not my job to create meaning, but to charge the air so that meaning can occur.” This! 👌

    As someone who is studying photography I feel like we don't talk about contemporary photographers enough so thank you for sharing his work, it's so beautiful!

    15:35 "The power of photography [is] to tell the truth, but equally to lie - I think that's what makes it such an interesting medium". This was articulated so accurately !

    Can't believe my favorite photographer was featured on my favorite channel! Such an inspiration. No matter how many times I reread his book, I always find something new to learn and to keep me motivated. This interview was amazing!

  • @bobsykes
    @bobsykes Před 2 měsíci +15

    That's fantastic, Willem! He's such an inspiration. This reminds me of one of your earliest videos on this channel I saw, in which you talked about Hido's work being an inspiration for your own photos. It also struck me how there is not a "sharp" picture shown in this whole thing, yet today's Internet is obsessed with gear reviews about how insanely sharp some latest and greatest lens is! It is so cool that you got to make this video.

  • @okyeabuddyguy
    @okyeabuddyguy Před měsícem +6

  • @andrewlloyd-kuzik
    @andrewlloyd-kuzik Před měsícem +1

    This is my favourite kind of photography video on CZcams because it explores a genuine, decades-long evolution of creative inspiration and gives some insight into a masters approach to their art. There’s definitely a place for early-career photographers discussing their profession and inspiration but this sort of interview just hits different. Amazing work, I hope to see much more like this from your channel!

  • @Al_Bx
    @Al_Bx Před měsícem +1

    Great interview, great insight to his work. And very important words : print your pictures. Give them physicality. Let them have the opportunity to be found, rediscovered, weeks, months, years later!
    I've lost thousands of photographs in the void of old hard drives, flimsy SSDs and stolen or lost phones. The printed ones are still there.

    What a great watch and interview It was very interesting to hear Hiddo's thoughts on photography and the vernacular. "Pleasures and terrors of domestic comfort" is one of my favourite publications. ".... to photograph on top of the mountain one must climb it , to photograph in the home one must be invited" forever changed my approach to photography .
