Time in Concept and Scale with Dale Rio
Time in Concept and Scale with Dale Rio
June 18 - July 16th
Thursdays 7 - 9 pm EDT for 5 weeks.
Photography is a time-based medium, and its ability to distill action into a single frame is best summed up in the concept of the “decisive moment.” But how else can the passage of time be expressed through still photography? And what types of time scales can be explored through the medium? How can different concepts or manifestations of time be addressed? in this practice group, we’ll discuss strategies by which we can depict atypical time scales and concepts photographically.
