Artists statement – A photograph captures a moment in time but, by using digital manipulation that moment can be distorted to appear out of its time, to offer a sense of timelessness. This aging process challenges our notion of what we see, and underlines the concept that realism is, more often than not, what we think we are seeing rather than what is really in front of our eyes. My images are an exploration of perceptual realism – to observe the way that light reveals objects or locations and suspends them in an image that, at first glance, is timeless. Each image is accompanied by a quote that came to mind as I manipulated the image. This quotation adds to the perception of the image and adds a second dimension hopefully make the viewer think deeper. The originator of each quote has deliberately not been named as part of the enjoyment of life is finding out things for oneself. This journey of exploration adds to the joy of discovering a deeper understanding of the photographic image.
