Keeping Time​
​
As if you were mine to be kept, or even lightly designed to be held, I have recorded you here, over the course of a year: my time.
These are the same views visually repeated; of the landscape photographed systematically according to solar intervals of solstices and equinoxes- from Summer to Summer and every moment in between. Photographs of entire seasons has given allowance to these windows of time to individually dictate their own unique image- through interference and visual reference, rains, fogs, plant growth, movement & hues; each picture is an articulation of time, place and seasonal experience.
