TIME PAST
LYNN BIANCHI
2020
Times Past is a video meditation on one’s existence. It arises from the need to look past the confines of traditional photography and use multimedia arts as a language to discuss the meaning of life. The work is a celebration of life and death, of fleeting time and one’s ability to stop and contemplate the moment. Sounds of distant music and falling rain draw the audience further in.
