1056 hours part 1
Digital Photography. 2024
Collaboration with Matthew Chung.
This is an intimate experiment on time, observation, and presence.
From 2 April to 16 May, 2024, during a period of living with my partner, we took one photo every hour to capture the present moment. The subject might be each other, or scenes and objects from my perspective. This act was both a witness to the passing of time and a visual narration of intimacy. Although the photographs were not taken in strict hourly succession, together they form a nonlinear slice of time, revealing the fragmented nature of everyday life.
Each image was printed in postcard size and displayed on a rotating postcard rack. Through this transformation, the photographs become souvenirs, temporal fragments, or familiar visual displays found in public space. Viewers are invited to browse, pause, and physically connect with these recorded moments of daily life.

The images were also uploaded to Instagram as a form of archiving and documentation.
