Triptych (How to capture time)

A triptych (/ˈtrɪptɪk/ TRIP-tik; from the Greek adjective τρίπτυχον "triptukhon" ("three-fold"), from tri, i.e., "three" and ptysso, i.e., "to fold" or ptyx, i.e., "fold") is a work of art (usually a panel painting) that is divided into three sections, or three carved panels that are hinged together.

An image is only one moment captured for eternity, it may have allusions to the ever elusive past and present, but the attempts are in vain. We forget that all movies, shows, films, are all just individuals images shown in rapid sequence. Here, the birthing of a flower, the reaping and sowing of a thought, become manifest in sequence:




Space

How does one capture the ephemeral? That which is defined by which it is not, where "it" is not. Allusions to the void which without no form could be. The womb of all that is, yet rarely revered for its awesome powers.




Light and Form

To light, we are like fish in water. Light has a body and essence of its own which dances around us. This brilliance is usually made peripheral, what care does the modern person hold for the body of light?
