Whether I’m walking around the block where I live or strolling on a beach far from home, I feel compelled to photograph moments of time on our wondrous planet. In this video, I want to share my fascination with the often overlooked bits ‘n’ bobs commonly found on beaches with some of my favourite “memento mori” quotes from famous people including William Blake, Marcus Aurelius, Ben Franklin and Kahil Gibran.

Recently, I’ve been doing a bit of time travelling, reviewing my old journals and slides. And so, I’ve created the video, MEXICO OBSCURA, from my amorphous memories of Mexico 1979. In this video, my slides take shape, enshrining commonplace reality with a mystical aura of holiness. Each image captures “a decisive moment” in the juxtaposition of people and their surroundings. The resulting tableaux become ambiguous narratives filled with a magical sense of mystery.

Some of the images in this video have been featured on my optimism of color blog and in exhibitions. Forty-six of the photos from the video are available in a keepsake, print-on-demand publication with free digital download for $12 from Magcloud. Prints and merchandise are available from Pixels.
