A Long White Cloud (2019) consists of four collaged photographic works that are digitally rebuilt cloudscapes, constructed from multiple images taken over a protracted period of them. I think of them as ‘time-based’ photography rather than still photography. They do not 'capture the moment'; instead, they present multiple instances collapsed into one. This work evokes my own state of a being as a long white cloud, which is always transforming into different shapes.
