"WB: On the other hand, “beauty” is often considered a key attribute in photography. Do you feel an affinity with photography?

CS: Yes, sure. My work enters into a pretty direct dialogue with photography. For the Volta show I experimented with silkcreen as a medium. It’s one of the few methods that combines aspects of both photography and painting. While the form follows photography, the way of applying the colors is connected to the process of painting."
