Katy Grannan quotes
-
“This is the way photography can be cruel... in the sense that it describes everything, even the things we are not necessarily aware we're revealing.”
-- Katy Grannan -
“I have a terror of things being nice and knowing what to expect. Making a photograph is a license to have experiences that I would not otherwise have.”

“There's always been something illicit about the way I work. I'm photographing people I don't know, when nobody else is home - there's a necessary degree of secrecy.”
