Artist Statement
I found it while walking with my dog.
Being with the right camera is like recognizing the uncanny resemblance between a dog and its owner. They often look alike and share a symbiotic connection. Their facial features may be similar, and their posture and movement may complement each other. The bond between a dog and its owner is an unconditional attraction that can be unparalleled and cute, depending on how one perceives the relationship. If my dog were a camera, it would be a Plaubel Makina 67.
