Hundertwasser's comment on the work
Photography kills. The camera is the evil eye. I was involved with a photographer's model and I got an inside look at it. Another one took her own life because she thought she was getting too fat. (from: Hundertwasser 1928-2000, Catalogue Raisonné, Vol. 2, Taschen, Cologne, 2002, p. 507)
