Clear To Soft
Unnamed Sixty Three — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
This image more than the recent others reminds me most of my childhood fever dream and also of staring out the side window while driving past fields and trees.
Before I began wearing contact lenses I could relax my vision until it was blurry and I used ...
New Idea
Unnamed Sixty Two — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
Completing these Sidelong images has given me some ideas on things to experiment with for the next body. I went out in the snow yesterday and shot a small test to check it's validity. It worked quite well and gave an interesting result, but I will ...
Transport
Unnamed Sixty One — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
I'm mostly concerned with the category of motion called transport - which is motion in everyday life, like walking, falling, playing, change of position, orientation of objects or water or the behaviour of people. Traffic is a derivative of people's behaviour.
"All Motion is relative. It's perceived ...
Motion
Unnamed Sixty — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
"Motion is the most fundamental observation about nature at large. It turns out that everything that happens in the universe is some type of motion. There are no exceptions. The study of motion was given the name physics in the fifth century BCE in Ancient Greece." I've ...

Invisible Structure
Unnamed Fifty Nine, 2020 — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
Working backward in time through the collection of material for Sidelong it feels like the images have less visible structure and recognizable elements in them. Not sure if this is good or bad. But definitely more painterly and some of them look like colourfields ...
Orbital Velocity
Unnamed Fifty Eight — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
I've been thinking more about my dream and the relative speeds of close versus distant objects. The closer an object the faster it appears to be moving. Despite my dream fear, this idea of proximity and velocity are somehow visually appealing. In my dream the ...
Interesting Rhythms
Unnmamed Fifty Seven — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
Interesting patterns and rhythms are on occasion surfacing as I progress through the stockpiled Sidelong images. Means I have to move slowly and not make premature assumptions about the material. But it's bringing out some pretty cool results - more of my dream geometry.
Fearsome Dream
Unnamed Fifty Six — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
When I was much younger I used to have this incredibly frightening dream – usually when I was ill. It would begin with me safe and disembodied in an all-white detail-less world – calm and enticing. An impending sense of doom would gradually creep over ...
Simplify
Unnamed Fifty Five — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
Had a dream the other night in which I was explaining my work to somebody – don’t know who. I was of course using all the usual adjectives which were - somehow unsatisfying, when trying to explain why movement is so important to me in ...
Ethereal by Nature
Unnamed Fifty Four — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
These latest Sidelong images are much more delicate and dream like - showing ghostly outlines countered with intense saturated smears. This is a new direction for this body of work. Almost similar to something I happened upon some time ago with an image in the Convergent ...
Riding In Traffic
Unnamed Fifty Three — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
For the past 9 years and 3 bodies of work - Light Signatures, Convergent and now Sidelong, I have captured all the source material while peddling my bicycle in Toronto traffic. When I tell people this they are mostly surprised - and afraid.
Doing this places ...
Smear
Unnamed Fifty Two — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
Working more on Sidelong this past week I remembered in the mid 90's shooting my pal Andrew cycling fast through the woods in a massive smearing green panning shot which I later worked into something similar to these pieces. That and the Drive Me I - ...
A Moment
Unnamed Fifty One — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
And what is a moment then? What is the length? There is much beauty in a moment, in drawing out a moment, in smearing out a moment into a wafer thin layer of sight and sound. In doing so, we see a moment’s true composition, it’s ...
Fleeting – Ephemeral
unnamed forty six b — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
This is all so fleeting and ephemeral – so temporary. Everything we are, everything we do is so transient. Time is a series of events - all temporary. All moments. None permanent. They only remain as memory if they even make it that far and ...
Isolate
Unnamed Fifty — Sidelong :: (click image to see more)
Had a dream last night in which… I think, I was speaking with someone about my early black and white images. How even then I was focused on eliminating distracting elements in my compositions. The word I remember saying was isolate. The details are hazy now and ...
