There are moments in our daily life when the veil that familiarity creates fades away long enough for you to experience objects and situations in a different manner. Their logic ceases, they become abstracted from reality. You are suddenly aware of the change of colour in a face, the invisibility of particles in the air around you, the silence of a chair. I use such moments as a starting point for my photographs. The nature of things. - ‘As removed as one may be from an object one is never entirely separated from it.’ (author unknown) - ‘ (.....) longs to have wings, breathe out smoke, to be inside everything, to develop as plants do, flow like water, vibrate like sound, to penetrate each atom, to get down to the depth of matter- TO BE MATTER.’ (Flaubert - The temptation of St Antony) Ours is a world of objects, one glance into any room and you will realize you are surrounded. A coffeecup, a lighter,books, cellotape, chairs, a roll of film, etc. They are always there, most of the time unnoticed ,taken for granted and never questioned. I want to make a series of photographs that explore this continuous presence of the inanimate. Images that reconsider your awareness of consciousness of the objects around you.
