Chronography


In retrospect, a life passes by in a moment - then we are left to reflect on the events and the influence of those who shared themselves with us. The irregular rhythm of life's tempo is one of many wonders which differentiates creatures from a programed device. Chronography exhibits the ebb and flow, the unique pulse of a life which touches our own. (In remembrance of my mother and sister.)

The A Book About Death phenomenon, which spawned many international exhibitions, will now feature entries focused on the secondary theme - The Ties That Bind.
