Solo exercise I, from the series Momentum, 2015.
About the series
Defining the instant before any given event as a potential unit of time, one in which conventional timekeeping grinds to a halt, evoking the impeding frailty of the moment, stretching it, holding onto its fleeting nature.
A moment as intangible as a thought or a decision, but preceding it... It is a moment measured by its ephemeral and dramatic resistance.
In vain, we try to control the course of our lives. Maybe, our potential is manifested as an experience, the precise moment just before the outcome, a vertigo condition, the sensation of waking up falling.
