Free Tempo Pendulum

Free Tempo Pendulum is a series of images depicting rocks suspended in the air, and an ongoing reflection on temporality and the dimension of duration.  Inspired by the way that photographs warp our senses of time by showing us the past in the present, I emphasize the disorienting visual qualities that render when different concrete timelines intersect: the microscopic 1/1000 of a second that allows my camera to make an image meets the short passage of time that it took for me to throw a rock in the air, which together meet the deep time that formed the rocks in the first place. The images are both a fragment of time, a visual interpretation of the life of time, and a reference to time itself.
