Photography is something I have enjoyed for a very long time. The idea of freezing a perfect moment in time is so powerful. When I make physical copies of my photos, I often think about who will see them in the future. Whose grandchild will flip through the family album and ask: "Who's this," and "What's going on here?". The lovely person who buys a collection of old, faded photos at their local antique store. They look through them and scrutinize the people I have locked in time, the places where I planted my feet and aimed my camera. In a decade or two, no one will have an aswer to these questions. While the people and scenes in my photos are long gone, a single frame of their lives exists, tangibly, out there somewhere.
Film, like photography, allows one to catch time. However, a film is not limited to a single frame. The lense catches whole events in time. It gives us the ability to physically relive times past. A cold morning spent in the bed with your lover. Two people passionately fucking. A child who still believes in Santa, ripping the paper off a present. Anytime, as long as we have our tapes, DVDs, or phones, we can pull these moments back and relish in them again. The lovers, now divorced, still whisper in their bed. The love makers, died of AIDS or HIV, still touch and love. The child, now grown, and no longer believeing in magic-- still unwraps his gift with awe-filled eyes. This is what film can do.
