Add to basketHB, 297 x 210 mm, 104 pages, EN-NL edition Illustrated. ISBN 9789491262135. In selecting the photographs for this publication, Lisa Spilliaert (b.?1990) was adamant that the image of a sunrise should be among the first in her book. It is, indeed, an emblematic image. For anyone with a camera, such a splendid sunrise is an irresistible trope: a visual motif that simply begs to be captured and fixed on film. In reality, however, the magic of this scene resides in the fleeting, subtle changes in colours and vibrations. This is the dynamic that captivates us. Photography is usually understood as a technique for ?stopping? the flow of time. But as Spilliaert here demonstrates, the impact of photography can also be used to manifest an awareness of time and transience. By accentuating the photographer?s fixed position vis-à-vis the endlessly changing light source, Spilliaert evokes a correlation between stasis and movement, between the cosmic and the mundane. This duality is echoed again in the confrontation of the two equivalent silhouettes: that of the photographer and of his alias or ?partner?: a life-size technical camera.? From ?Time and Tide?
