“Stationary Flow”
Manipulated digital photographs
The focus for my work is to portray the
flow of movement through static photographs. The range of skate boarding movement in the foreground is
contrasted with the solid static image of the background. This artwork was
created in response to the concept of Time and Place and explores the idea of
‘place’ as permanence and ‘time’ as fleeting. I was also playing with the idea
that the various individual figures captured in photographs move beyond the
instant in which the shot was taken, to become a part of a continuum which
conveys the single skating movement or trick, although the place in which this
occurs remains the same.
