—————————————————————
When you use the words “winter” and “spring,” the two seasons are as seen as different things, entities that can be separated. However, the seasons are continually changing, and time moves onwards without interruption. What you can capture with photography is the state of the world at the instant you released the shutter, and the image itself does not tell us much. However, when these are arranged in sequence, they begin to connect with each other, and a space or interval begins to emerge between them. I would like to leave it to the viewer how to read the space between the lines.
Our streams of consciousness make connections between fragments. When viewing fragments, the point at which you become conscious of something is deeply embedded in your memory. It can be difficult to differentiate between what you remember seeing and what you are seeing right now, so past and present overlap. This is similar to the experience of viewing photography.
