Light

The camera inspired me to make this timeline. It is a product that captures an image using the light that there is onto a two dimensional light sensitive surface. Then I began to go back in time before film of this sort was invented. I was humiliated when I realised that I took drawing for granted since it was the origin of cameras. The human eye capturing the three dimensional world onto a two dimensional surface using his hand was no easy feat. Light translating 3-D onto 2-D is about investigating the evolution of cameras but also our desire to capture moments.
