More From David LaChapelle

Faced with today's problems and disappointments , many people will try to escape from their responsibility. escape in selfishness, escape in sexual pleasure, escape in drugs, escape in violence, escape in indifference and cynical attitudes. i propose to you the option of love, which is the opposite of escape.

There are only two worlds - your world, which is the real world, and other worlds, the fantasy. worlds like this are worlds of the human imagination: their reality, or lack of reality, is not important. what is important is that they are there. these worlds provide an alternative. provide an escape. provide a threat. provide a dream, and power; provide refuge, and pain. they give your world meaning. they do not exist; and thus they are all that matters.

Pictures are the idea in visual or pictorial form; and the idea has to be legible, both in the individual picture and in the collective context - which presupposes, of course, that words are used to convey information about the idea and the context. however, none of this means that pictures function as illustrations of an idea: ultimately, they are the idea. nor is the verbal formulation of the idea a translation of the visual: it simply bears a certain resemblance to the meaning of the idea. it is an interpretation, literally a reflection.

As i took another breath, i saw the three stars again. they were not calling to me; they were letting me go, leaving me to the black universe i had wandered for so many lifetimes. i drifted into the black, and it got brighter and brighter. it wasn't black at all - it was blue. warm, vibrant, brilliant blue...i floated into it with no fear at all.

A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. a route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. a road is a tribute to space. every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. a route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.

Pictures! pictures! pictures! often, before i learned, did i wonder whence came the multitudes of pictures that thronged my dreams; for they were pictures the like of which i had never seen in real wake-a-day life. they tormented my childhood, making of my dreams a procession of nightmares and a little later convincing me that i was different from my kind, a creature unnatural and accursed.
