Lite Brite
Artist Statement
For the things not travelling with us in our everyday lives, they appear to age or to grow faster than us or what appears to be faster. If we were to stop travelling so fast, what would we notice? How would we see the world if we slowed down? If we stopped travelling at the speed of light we would age with everyone else at a unified speed. Instead we travel at the speed of light and according to the theory of relativity, we move faster into the future, we look at the slower/stationary objects as we pass them and we see them growing, aging faster than they should. We are all time travelers and my job as a photographer is to stop you from looking at your world that travels at the speed of light and come down to a stationary speed where everything stops. Everything is in sync.
