Universal Exposure Meter, 2008

Contemporary time and digital technology have changed the way many of us photograph and find their way around.

The scannogram of this old lightmeter evokes not only the compass, but a timewhen both instruments meant slowness, a slower process, a pondered way of looking and decision making. Wandering and walking are creative elements of my working process.

Subverting the fast rhythm and the contemporary logic of space, I find in these acts a pathway to uncertainty and surprise but also connection with the surroundings. The simultaneous reading of both scanner and lightmeter simulates this metaphorical interaction.
