Slow Motion

A photography collection
Slow Motion explores the transformation of movement into abstraction through long exposures and techniques such as the use of neutral density (ND) filters. By allowing time to accumulate within a single exposure, moving elements become blurred forms, often set against still backgrounds or anchored by objects that retain their definition.
The result is a different way of seeing reality. In waterscapes, movement can dissolve into smooth, almost idyllic surfaces, creating scenes that feel detached from the passage of time. In other images, the blur becomes a way of compressing movement into a still frame — capturing something of the experience of motion within a single, frozen view of the world.
I'm interested in this tension between movement and stillness, between the fleeting and the permanent, and in how extending the time of an exposure can reveal a reality that our eyes cannot quite perceive in the same way.
The photographs span the period from 2007 to 2018, taken with digital cameras and medium and large format film cameras.
