“Times beyond the tree” is available online
Posted by David | Filed under Artwork, Drawing, My stuff, News, Personal, Photography, Writings
A collection of my recent photographs, line drawings, texts and song lyrics are available in the form of a book portfolio called Times beyond the tree (hardback and softback!) Click the cover below where you can find out about the book, preview it and order it online.
Times beyond the tree is a short portfolio selection of my recent photographs, line drawings, texts and song lyrics.
Loneliness, solitude, emptiness.
Awareness, connections, excitement.
Beauty.
A tiptoed journey that turns dead-end glances to next door’s shadows
An awkward, onward struggle that can never be as expected
A couple lie in bed and listen to one another breathe
An old woman is reassured as a flag signals her death
Two strangers find out they have already met and spoken without words
And a windowsill sunset somehow connects it all together in perfect harmony
The title is a reference to Chris Marker’s photomontage La Jétée . A man travels back in time to save civilisation and find his former love. While in a park, the couple stare at a cut cross-section of a giant sequoia tree that is marked with historical dates. The man points somewhere beyond the tree and says “This is where I come from”.
