Time Stretched is a visual exploration that delves into the intricate interplay between time, motion, and human perception. Each image in the series freezes a moment in a temporal paradox: the surroundings seem distorted in a chaotic stretch of time, while the central figure remains unchanged amidst the warped fabric of time. This results in elongated landscapes, distorted architecture, and surreal atmospheres, creating a captivating visual atmosphere.
Each image was captured in diverse locales spanning the globe, from the bustling streets of New York to the vibrant landscapes of Tokyo, Barcelona, Bangkok, and beyond. However, within the realm of Time Stretched, geographical distinctions fade into insignificance, as the viewer is transported into an abstract, distorted moment of time. Here, the central character appears alone and suspended in their own temporal bubble, detached from the constraints of place and immersed in the intriguing interplay of temporal paradoxes.
The visuals in the Time Stretched series are presented chronologically, mirroring the order of their creation between 2022 and 2024.
