Two girls, Southbury 1957 “Peter believed that there are in the world certain exceptionally favored people who live entirely in the present—unlike himself, unlike most of us, but perhaps like these children...Emotionally, in their essential being, they never absent themselves; they are always fully here. They are present for everything. Peter took the interplay of presence and absence as one of the most essential human truths, and he viewed the mingling of immediacy and inner distance as a quality uniquely visible to the camera.” - Stephen Koch #peterhujar @stephenkoch_
