Night Sky: The Book
Experiments with collected time and harvested light
Discover a new meaning to a familiar sight. The long-exposure photographs of the night sky in this book are an experiment with the accumulation of time and light. Whilst most photography represents a snapshot of a moment in time, the photographs from this project are studies of periods of time.
The time it took to expose each photograph, from ten seconds to over an hour, is viewable in an instant yet remains contained in its entirety within the photographs.
The long exposure photographs create a new reality in which time does not vanish but can be collected.
This is the first time that I have published a book from this body of work.
Night Sky is presented as a beautifully bound hardcover volume, designed to be held and enjoyed. Spanning 58 pages, this 20 x 25 cm trade edition is printed on high-quality paper that preserves the light and deep tonal qualities of the original black & white photographs. 26 photographs with an introduction by the artist.
