Take time, calm down, observe…
Take time to lie down and dream, take time to make use of slow photography, take time out of time.
This work, as well as the other Ambrotypes series I’ve made, is a multi level paradox.
Images of dreamers and nature, nothing new, nothing sensational, just an intimate view of individuals in their solitude. Both this long process and the subjects are in opposition to a fast moving and easily bored world. A few glass plates against an endless flow of images. Pictures on noble material to be held in hands for more than a second. Long poses versus instant photography . Organic versus abstract.
