Prolongance

Photography by Eric Laverty


Merging movement, time, and space into fluid, continuous compositions, I transform photography into an unfolding process — one that engages my body as both an instrument and a subject in dynamic collaboration with the environment and the camera. Each image emerges as a durational event, where traces of movement, intention, and interaction converge to redefine how we perceive unconsidered moments and interpret the photographic frame.

Straightening the Staircase

Navigating the Rubin Museum's spiral staircase in New York City, Straightening the Staircase transforms its curvature into a linear rendering, warping and flattening the architectural experience. It echoes themes throughout Prologance where experiments with the capture of movement redefine the familiar and disrupt traditional spatial narratives.

Crossing 42nd Street

"40 Deuce Street, the weaver of magic. Sometimes beauty, sometimes tragic. Where glamour and illusion are the welcome committee. Where overindulgence becomes self-pity. Where pleasure becomes the absence of time, while dignity goes begging and confusion becomes rhyme..." - Umar Bin Hassan, Be Bop or Be Dead

Capturing the pulse of the street where shadows stretch and fragment, where each step reveals layers of tension and harmony. The city street is a stage of fleeting encounters, where time slips by and the mundane transforms into moments of unexpected poetry.

Walking the Line

A reflection on Richard Long's seminal piece 'A Line Made by Walking' where he used walking as a medium, creating traces of corporeal presence and bodily action. Also thinking about Johnny Cash.
