In 2016, at my first modern ballet, I got lost in time. This launched a five-year photographic exploration, which I call "Moving Still // Still Moving".  

The notion of time being pliable vs constant, fascinated me. I started to explore and play with the idea of capturing various expressions and facets of time in this photo/animation series. 

Traditional dance photography typically captures a very still moment usually at the end of a movement resulting in a pose. I was more interested in the strokes between those poses. 

By leaving my shutter open for longer I was able to gather more time into a single image, leaving a visual history of the dancer’s movement.

The second part of this series are animations that unpack and re-expands the original photographic image adding another dimension of space to further explore the experience of time.

Moving Still // Still Moving

The ‘Still Moving’ series is the second half to the “Moving Stills” series which can be found on [Foundation.app/daveko](www.foundation.app/daveko)

Where ‘Moving Stills” captures and distills "more time" into a still photograph, the “Still Moving” series unpacks and re-expands time back out from a flat still image and introduces another dimension of time, space. Time experienced in different ways is what this project is about.

This part of the series further examines our relationship between time and space. 
Dance at it's essence is all about time and space and our relationship with it. 
It's a microcosm of the human experience.
