ProlongancePhotography 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 |
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. Thinking about Johnny Cash too. |
