who wrote this quote about black and white photography?

[Lucy]

I am a year 12 photogrpahy student and for an essay, we must research and write about the following quote, the problem is I can't figure out who said this quote (I think it is probobly a famous photographer) here is the quote:

“Black and white is a designer’s tool. Denying the apparent reality of colour, it begins as an abstract representation. We do not see in black and white. And because abstraction is a cornerstone, the artist is not obliged to any prearranged standards of representation.”

If you have any idea who said this quote or any ideas at all regarding the quote, what it is about, if you agree or disagree or any thoughts at all then please tell me! thank you so much!

[Podge and Rodge]

I think my brother Rodge said that.
