Robert Burns Invocation

transience

In this blog post: Extract from an interview. Mrs. Marsh foot in conversation with photographer Moor. Note the English pronunciation of the name, Mrs. Moore has three years in London (United Kingdom) lived. Photos to enlarge.

swamp walk: Dear Mrs. Moore, I have asked you to take pictures on impermanence and they said you were a photographer. What do you mean?

Moor: My answer and got my answer I originally seen as a contradiction to her question. I am a photographer, that means, I'm filming not, as some passes, but I provide only a single shot. In the pictures you see states, but not the mortality, that was my first thought.

And then?

Then I thought to myself, I will send it states, snapshots, uh, snapshots of meadow and forest. Everything changes with time. Everything could be shown under the topic transience.

Add a topic about a picture and the viewer will consider it accordingly?

Yes. Image and caption set associations free. And another thing: the transience, the offense is a process. Runs but no longer at the picture, but the viewer in the viewer, you understand?
When I was taking that photograph of the mushroom, as I photographed the mushroom, I just wanted to hold this state, the picture that he painted on the floor. I was very close to the theme of transience here in that I thought I had come at just the right moment, and fortunately, with cameras. The next day, the fungus might have been away, or black color of the night the rain washed into the soil washed into the ground.

the readers of your mushroom image thinking but rather to the fungus that has passed, right?

Oh yes, I want to comment this. Also for me the image has this other meaning. Although I do not think there anyone who sees the picture, it must go like that. With me is also the fact that I knew the mushroom for a few days earlier, when he was young and lived. His hat had had not even opened. "Disappear leaves"

The three photographs entitled affect me but then when you wanted to make the offense a material, sorry, the crime of something once living thing visible.







(peat smiles indulgently) There are states, nothing else, nothing else. The three pictures were taken on the same day.

Does the state at all? The leaves are still, as we see in the decomposition process.

Since you probably just talk to your own inner process, Mrs. swamp walk. Of course, you do not decompose, excuse my miss-understand language, I mean only the development of your thoughts.

But because a grant does not mean that it is subject to arbitrariness, to something called a condition? And would we even in the world ever come across something that is not subject to development?

I will like you agree that the state is a foregone size and everything I know in the world movement. In our perception, however, in my perception, many things appear on sensible periods of time without change, resistant, or I take up my camera to help and make a snapshot. How long have you wanted to because, for example, are faced with the leaves, to see the decomposition?

I admit it is difficult to trace the crime in minute detail, and to perceive what is happening.
on your scrolling images, Mrs. Moore has I so fascinated by the delicacy of the leaf skeleton and their transition into the substance of the ground.

Oh, that's my topic, I talk about it very much! Instead of the offense, I could also describe the becoming or emergence or transformation. In the fall, in which I might regret the passing of summer splendor, emerge new forms and colors. Especially the autumn foliage is wonderful. Red and yellow colors come but only be negotiated because the green leaf pigment degrades. And I make the veins does not, to emphasize the decline of the leaf, but this particular moment in the life cycle of capture, which are not different from other states and the transience of prey is.

It is my understanding that we say yellow, wilted leaf expression for both the transience of life can be summer, as well as something nice to regret is the transience of man.

I have while shooting the latter always in mind. In summer and autumn. I eventually used again risen, as fragile but also the beauty of this is what we generally have attributed the fall. Only for a short time the book leaves lights in the forest to the feet. In dark days of rain when the water reinwäscht the leaves, even more than on days with sun. I think it could last forever, ... I like the same idea in the summer comes. The shells of the beech nuts are light and silky inside and shine the chestnuts. The children want, chestnuts were always how they look when they are just like fresh.


But why actually, Mrs. Moor, make me a picture with a dead fish available and not one with, say, catkins? Think about the impermanence of death?

So first, the fish image from my last show left and was therefore reduced in price and secondly you can, Mrs. Swamp walk, do not at my spring pictures. The reason is that spring is very perishable.

And death?

even in death, it is fleeting, I've already noticed the leaves.

(swamp walk breaks Moor) Has the fish no more than a leaf? I mean, he has at least one eye!

Sure, as a recipient, you have the choice, my pictures to look at anyway. And you may interpret as you wish. For example, it might occur to one to put the spotlight on the ice. It has no very firm. Just a little more sun and it melts away. This will provide the fish to the decay process of free - although we must not think only of death but also to the life that this process requires that many types of bacteria and fungal species that are involved, and in the lake, life goes on. And the eye? Yeah, the eye ... It is looking directly into my lens, is not it?

Is not that mean to the fish?

Well, you know, to a story from the sea: the waves leave on the beach lines, wavy lines of shells. And because they are so different to the country to run, there are several lines that always overlap. On such a line I found a fish. He was dead and still looked wonderful from. His body glistened in different colors. It was a very small fish, paper clips and a half long and very thin. A child came and said that this fish looks like a pendant, that is jewelry. It was the dead fish to look for a while in his hand. Another very young child wanted to see the fish too. It has thrown him into the water, looked forward and said Now it lives again ! Then it wanted to see more fish and revive it.

(swamp walk very thoughtful) Yes, yes.
