Time-lapse is a playful, lighthearted and nostalgic exploration of the potential of light and shadow to create a dynamic artwork.

Allow yourself to be drawn into an expansive, spacious rural village, rendered minimally in paper relief and clay, which evokes idyllic, childhood memories of the farm experiences foundational to the life of many New Zealanders. A delighted, energetic puppy does zoomies on an endless loop around the boundary whilst a sped up light cycle casts perpetual and rythmic shadows that indicate the passage of a day.
This artwork offers an experience akin to gazing into a fireplace; a rhythmic and ever-changing visual landscape that makes space for happiness and introspection.
