Personal Topographies is a project that explores the concept of time and the borderline between art and science. Each large scale digital negative in this project is constructed from several (between 15 to 30) long exposure detail photographs slowly captured over a long time period, The project challenges the popular assumption that photography simply (mechanically) captures and renders a fragment of time into reality. Here the time passage is elongated and abstracted. Each landscape is gently created like a painting. The final result is surreal in the level of detail and kind of resembles the early documentary landscape photographs created on large view cameras.
