«Как ни странно, ограниченная возможность — это Возможность. Мои съемки из одного и того же ракурса полны открытий и радуют меня своей новизной всякий раз, я к этому никак не привыкну. Конечно, я бы с удовольствием встала, но все же я как творческий человек не страдаю от того, что не могу это сделать, я просто вижу то, что, возможно, не видно другим.» (из интервью для каталога выставки)

"Sounds strange, but the limited ability - it is a chance. My photography of the same angle are full of discovery and makes me happy every time, I cannot get used to it. Of course, I would love to get up, but being a creative person I do not suffer from the fact that I can not do it, I just see something that may not be visible to others.
