"La mémoire ne filme pas, la mémoire photographie."
_ Milan Kundera _
"When you photograph people in colour you photograph their clothes. But when you photograph people in B&W, you photograph their souls! "
~Ted Grant
Any photograph has multiple meanings; indeed, to see something in the form of a photograph is to encounter a potential object of fascination.
Photographs, which cannot themselves explain anything, are inexhaustible invitations to deduction, speculation, and fantasy.

"Joan shoots beautifully photographed and composed, street and candid scenes in classical B&W. I like the very high quality and varied scenes she shows us. Most of her pictures are inhabited by people acting naturally in their various urban environments."
