Christophe Agou quotes:

Looking and seeing are two different things. What matters is the relationship with the subject.

With every glance I take in the 'negative-positive' of existence and the inevitability of impermanence to its glowing limits. Alone and haunted, I trust my inner eye, the heart. Everything, absolutely everything, becomes visible. Appearances, disappearances, nothing seems of secondary importance to me.

Somehow there is a certain honesty underground, a certain truth,

When I use the camera, I often feel likeI know part of the people or places I come in contact with.

The road from the eye to the heart is easy to follow. I am taking it with my eyes closed.

The distance between yourself and others should not be greater than your armâ??s length.

Whether it is photography, assemblage art or filmmaking, my work is to see beneath the surface.
