More quotes by Sam Haskins

Artists don't owe the world anything, least of all explanations.

Thus my pictures are quite simple: me, thinking in images.

I always insist that art is not a competition. Critics and curators miss the fact that valid work takes place across a wide spectrum

I think of myself as a designer who uses the photographic medium and I consider the female nude figure to be a design element, capable of endless permutations.
