Description

These images attempt to capture time itself. The artist took two photographs for every single day of his daughter's first year. One of the room she grew up in, and one of the view from the window. We see the baby grow as the seasons change behind her, every photo is strangely different and the same. What is startling, however, is how much time appears lost, despite a record comprising hundreds of pictures. Here lies the the poetry, paradox and power of photography - what is absent tells us more than what is present - that all time is lost.Michael Coldwell is currently conducting research into photography and time as part of a PhD at the University of Leeds. He has also worked as a designer, archivist and musician over the years, releasing experimental music under the name Conflux Coldwell and as part of a collective called Urban Exploration. Coldwell has also worked on several short films and video installations. His photographic work predominantly concerns explorations of time, memory and the changing (urban) landscape.
