COMMENTS
“The Justice images pose the paradox between human beings and what they’re thinking, how the jurors and all the protagonists are conditioned by their own environment, their own point(s) of view. This plays out in each of us when we consider our own guilt or innocence in a given situation, and therefore the genetic code and my interest in it seems almost predestined, it’s so related to everything else… I was able to consider how arrogant it was to suppose that we have a right or wrong standard that we can apply, when there are so many imponderables over which we have absolutely no control.”
