Movement, duration and accumulation are manifestations of time. Time flows voraciously, unwinding an endless line of perpetual "nows." But these “nows” are just a rational speculation. How do we manage to capture them visually? This is the generating question for this project. Through the use of time, this series wants to translate an idea into images.
To initiate the process, temporary motorized devices were build to induce movement to pieces of paper and cables. A machine made to generate the unpredictable, unexpected manifestations of time that I call my "hypotheses-images”.
