Interview met James Nachtwey
Ter gelegenheid van de opening van het LOOK3 fotofestival in Charlottesville werd James Nachtwey geïnterviewd door MaryAnne Golon.
Een aantal citaten:
Witnessing pain and sadness is an act of love.
People have asked me many times how I've survived so many battles. It's really a matter of being mindful of what's going on around you, transforming fear in to hyperawareness, listening to your instincts.
Sometimes I feel I was concentrating so hard a force field was created around me. So maybe that's it. But I have never felt protected by being behind a camera.
You carry everything with you. I think sometimes you might see too much, but you have to deal with it. It changes you. ... There are very few people you can relax around.
Sleeping and packing are my two major talents. Everything I take I use. And everything I need I take.
Verder liet Nachtwey weten dat hij ontspant door à la Ernest Hemingway te gaan vliegvissen. (Ik zie het voor me, Nachtwey in een waterdichte broek in een snelstromend riviertje met een hengel waar een zalm aan spartelt.)
