I Was Here

synopsis

The combination of static photographs taken with various exposure times creates a moving portrait of a place where the stone building has stood for centuries, but the people are just indistinct traces on the sidewalk in front of it. We see only those who stop long enough to leave their imprint on the short-term memory of the place.

The flow of time-lapse images also records changes in the solid structure as the light gives shape to the architecture.
