Ford . 1 - Limited Edition 1 of 40 Photograph

"Ford" is a series of photographic collages. The photographs were taken between Oakland, California and Atlanta, Georgia in July and August of 2012. The collages were made in 2013. A refinement of the questions in my series "Materials", "Ford" gets more specific about what types of things change our perspective and memories of a place and time. Our perception of time is relative to our velocity and the gravitational forces that are always effecting us. Although the changes are slight and immeasurable by man-made devices, we know from formulas that with greater gravitational force, time slows and space bends. In "Ford", I've examined the effect of velocity when traveling great distances in a short period of time. A trip across the country in a car fits nicely in a single package. The trip is so fast that millions and billions, trillions of details are lost, leaving a clean, digestible abstraction. The general mood of your trip, with a few key moments thrown in for dynamics. If I were to have walked from Oakland to Atlanta, I would have too many photos and stories to fit them all into a single image or even a single book. Time would pass so slowly as I dredge through the weight of the gravity pulling my feet to the ground and the details of each space I moved through would present themselves more and more boldly the slower I travel. And the slower I travel, the volumes that could be written about a single grain of dust. In our cars, we accelerate and shorten space and time itself. Although this manipulation of space and time effect is very subtle on it's own, modern culture has created an environment seen mostly through a car window. These works study the emotional effect on this manipulation of space and time.
