“Photographing in Africa, I may have the elephant here, or the wildebeest here, but you can see sometimes backgrounds are stacked, stripes. Here’s the grass in the foreground that’s one tone, here’s a stripe of water the animal is standing in, then here’s another stripe of trees that are all the same tone. If you skip the detail and just look at the abstract level you can see things are simple. I like pictures that have tons going on, very noisy in terms of details, but on an abstract level they’re very simple.”
