AEON is a project about space, time and light.

Space, time and light are fundamental elements that together form the connective tissue of our cosmos. Physics bases its theories about the origins and functioning of the universe on these principles.

On a personal level, space, time and light are coordinates in our lives. They are anchor points that give us guidance in where and when we are - relative phenomena that connect each person in their own way with the world around them.

Ever since my early childhood, when I felt the limitations of raised walls, I have been driven by an intrinsic desire for infinite spaciousness, timelessness and a sense of freedom. I give shape to that desire in AEON, a book and an installation with photos, light and sound.

Photographic images form the basis of the project. By using various techniques and editing methods, I let go of any reference to tangible reality. The boundaries between reality and imagination and between the finite and the infinite become blurred.

AEON is about a sensory suggestion of spaciousness and infinite possibilities. There is more than just what meets the eye in the image. Behind the space in the photo lies a whole world, outside the frame the landscape continues endlessly. Guided by elements of light and color, sometimes moving towards a vanishing point in the distance, the physical boundaries of the image dissolve – space, time and light thus become relative. The walls of my youth are still being broken down.
