The title refers to a quote from 'The Principles of Geology' of James Hutton, the father of Old Geology who, in the 18th century, introduced the concept of 'Deep Time', where time is not measured in years or decades or even centuries but in millions and billions of years, challenging our anthropocentric world view.
Photographing the sea has an implicit contradiction to it. The sea is probably the most ancient relic, relatively untouched by humans, reminiscent of times before we existed. Taking a photograph of the sea is an attempt to bring it into the present, at the same time acknowledging the futility or impossibility of this attempt.
The same goes for its spatial dimension. You can photograph the sea but by framing and presenting it in space, it becomes so limited, it starts questioning the attempt in itself.
This series reflects on how we look at the world from a human point of view and the mind-boggling consequences if we let that paradigm go and plunge into the abyss of thinking about space and time.
