Constructed from more than 250 individual digital photographs, the work transforms the traditionally static photographic image into a temporal and immersive experience. As the sequence unfolds, the viewer becomes aware not only of the images themselves but of the subtle shifts and transitions that connect them. It is within these moments of passage that the work resides.

​

Originally developed as one element of a three-part installation, Changing Spaces was presented within an intimate gallery environment designed to encourage sustained viewing and reflection. The work examines the evolving nature of photographic media within digital culture, challenging conventional understandings of the photograph as a singular frozen moment.

Rather than directing attention toward the past, the work situates the viewer within an unfolding present. Through repetition, transformation and movement, the image becomes an experience rather than an object, encouraging reflection on how contemporary technologies shape our relationship with representation, perception and the body.

​

As part of a broader investigation into changing creative spaces and digital realities, Changing Spaces invites audiences to reconsider not only how photographs are viewed, but how they are experienced.
