This series is inspired by the novel of Alan Lightman “Einstein’s Dreams”, and it’s an attempt to visually represent and depict the term “Time”. From the corners of the buildings, the whimsical shadows of the facades to colorful urban layerings and interconnections, with my photographs I am looking for an answer to the questions: is time an illusion or reality? Do we see real things or imaginative? My objective is to capture the elusive through abstract elements of graphic urban canvas, colors, geometry, light and shadows. Reality, though, is entirely in the eyes of the beholder.
