Hourglass – Amsterdam Light Festival

Hourglass – Amsterdam Light Festival

light art installation

“Hourglass is an installation that measures time by visualizing the passing of time itself.”

Nature shows the passing of time very elegantly by changing it’s appearance through the 4 seasons of the year I decided to make a time-lapse of this metamorphosis of nature during 1 year in the Wertheimpark and to transform it to a one minute experience.

After one year, thousands of time lapse photo’s further and the technical assistance of Bas Stoffelsen from Time:Writers, I was able to reposition this condensed piece of time at the exact spot in the park where it was taken from, which created the hallucinating image that a part of the park was moving in a different time frame as the surrounding area, as if you were looking through a hole in space and time.

Hourglass shows this natural phenomenon in all it’s splendor. “ – Lydia Fraaije
