"I don’t prefer one or the other. I think I have paid attention to the 'extraordinary'. But in general I think it’s more interesting to recognise the interrelation of what is ordinary and what is extraordinary, rather than seeing them as two separate entities, or ways." (Goldstein, Melissa. "THE Q&A: JEFF WALL, PHOTOGRAPHER." More Intelligent Life. Web. 20 Sept. 2010. .)
"I have gotten so much enjoyment and inspiration from works of art since I was a child, and most of the art that I saw was decades or centuries old. So, the ageing and surviving of art seems a central aspect of its value to us. It tells us how we both are and are not contemporary in our own time, and how such a thing as survival is possible, and how we can relate to it, even though we are all mortal."Goldstein, Melissa. "THE Q&A: JEFF WALL, PHOTOGRAPHER." More Intelligent Life. Web. 20 Sept. 2010. .
The third photograph is what I have been mostly looking at from photographers to inspire me with my own work. The first one though speaks more to the way that I have been photographing lately. The third one I guess you can say is the way the I was photographing and am trying to work in with the way the I am photographing now. I think that Jeff Wall was a good photographer for me to revisit so that I now know that it is possible for me to incorporate both the way that I was photographing and the way that I am now.
