Seemingly transforming before our eyes, On the Beach combines a hint of the bathing beauty of yesteryear with the beach bombshell of today. Playing with the exposure to create the illusion that we are looking at a beachside scene from decades ago, the eye travels through time as it moves outward from this central element to offer a modern seaside view and a beautiful nude on its shore.

2 x Analogue (film) images. 1 color transparency & 1x B&W negative overlayed. No manipulation. About the Artist I don't care for the certainty of what's in front of my lens, but the creativity, the fantasy, the invention, that can gush from a thought before or thereafter. Between the certain and uncertain, there's a possible space, like in dreams and fables.
