"A realidade flui, imparável; a genialidade em fotografia é agarrar, como um peixe pelo anzol, momentos que se precipitam por essa cascata; eu, olhando para tudo; tudo o que me interessa; a alegria de ver, descobrir, partilhar, escrever na água. Sinto-me grato."
Escritas na Água apresenta as fotografias de Paul Kohl reunidas nos livros Wandering in Fertile Fields, sobre paisagem indiana contemporânea, e Two Fish, Out of Water, resultante do trabalho realizado no Japão. - aqui.

"O problema é que todos nós somos cegos, dependentes de representações predeterminadas sobre o que acreditamos que vamos ver. É o que acontece na maior parte do tempo. Não experienciamos o mundo. Experienciamos as nossas expectativas acerca do mundo."

"If you think of the two great leaders of thought during India’s independence movement, namely, Mahatma Gandhi, and Rabindranath Tagore, they differed completely on the issue of formal school education. Tagore was very keen on education: reading, writing, arithmetic and science, along with play. Gandhi, on the other hand, had a very different approach. He was very sceptical of formal education and thought that education should be acquired through work, in a practical way. But I think that is a way, really, of not educating people much. Tagore was very critical of that. When Gandhi had said that you can bring about great personal improvement by spinning a wheel, Tagore responded that spinning a wheel consists of endlessly turning the wheel of an antiquated machine with a minimum of imagination and a maximum of boredom."

"Paul Kohl's photographs reflect all the nuances of rasa. Rasa is the Indian philosophical theory that determines aesthetic response within the arts: dance, music, painting, sculpture, film, photography can all be assessed and accessed through rasa.
(...)
In these photographs, Paul Kohl has invited the rasika to experience the images of India in this truth: not the process of exotic colorful 'othering', but thourgh the more subtle tap on the doors of perception, Paul has invited you into his view of the sensuality, absurdity, sadness, violence, heroics, fearsomeness, revulsion, marvelousness and peace of India."
