[What makes a good Farber nude in] Something that's naturally shot, impulsively, when everything is right. It's not set up, it's caught impulsively. It's just the same with my still lifes. I like the nude. It's challenging. If you're planning to do a nude or you're looking at pictures you get the sense that it's all been done. When I shoot it I don't think of it like that. I think of it as something pleasing. Otherwise I'd have to concentrate too much on what I'm not there for. It could become forced. The pictures that I come up with are made impulsively, based on where the model is or the light is. I try to give the image more mystery. I think it can be an invasion of privacy if you're looking at the person and you're also looking at the face. It's either a portrait or you're looking at form. When you have some talent and you're lucky, you're in the right place at the right time, the model doesn't have to have a great body but it has to work well with what you're doing. I don't cast a model like they do for a fragrance or soap ad. There the skin has to be perfect or the legs have to be perfect. I want to go as far away from the commercial work as possible.”
