Portrait of Time
Stuck in a time loop.
The Pandemic warped everyones sense of time and how we perceive it. The constant question of ‘what day is it again?’ All the days blurred together with no weekdays and weekends but only yesterday, today and tomorrow. What is the meaning of ‘Now?’ Order is the eye of the observer and time for us is this emotional connection to the events of the world that passes and flows.
The project ‘Trip to Tokyo’ evolved out of the ensuing isolation experienced in the pandemic. Animated postcards were created using collage to construct digital spaces that hold onto the memories of distanced loved ones.
‘Portrait of time,’ invited dancers from around Europe to express and film themselves through individual choreographed performances. Through the platforms of social media, I connected to global performers who shared my sense of isolation. Filmed through each performers mobile lens, artists took control of their own personal stories. In this moving image, the dancers become trapped in a time loop.
The series ‘The space between us’ is a study on time, motion and our emotional relationship to the scale of the universe. As we move from isolation back to our communities, countryside and our urban spaces; together we are able to celebrate our new relationship to time and also acknowledge that time itself is a precious force. Together we can build new ways of seeing, dancing and breathing together. As we enter the new digital decades working remotely offers all creatives the ability to build a sustainable future and this project is a reminder of all that is possible in 2021.
