What is it about?

This article use the artistic project ‘A horizon is not flat’ to show how photographic pattern can be seen as representation of place but also representation of time. The patterns can be ‘read’ as experience of place but also as experience of time, not as information or measurement of time but in an abstract or a-temporal sense as visualization of the experience or perception of continuity. I will present the suggestion of how film and pattern relate differently to rhythm and articulation of time, illustrated in a visual model.

Why is it important?

It shows alternative ways of how to interpret and reflect on aspects of time through photographic pattern compositions.

Perspectives

The article is part of my ongoing artistic research, exploring repetition and meaning in pattern and sequence.
