Time-lapse









The sunset scene on the Upper East Side is comprised of 101 pictures taken per minute.

Time Map



Time Map in the form of a snake

This concept is initially generated from an idea of a back bone because each time frame seems interact with one another as the bones do.
Each piece of the snake contains the process of peeling and consuming a mandarine.
This can be interpreted as the snake consuming the fruit as the time goes.
I cut the dowels and drilled each piece to connect them with a ribbon in arrow decoration.
The time gaps which can be flexible depending on person are showed with knots.
Its head is made of a shiny pored metal sheet.

Long vs Short




Time gap from the Medieval Era to today's

This piece is inspired by the medieval armor collection at Metropolitan Museum. The plastic material is invented recently so that I used two different plastic water bottles as the concept of recycling was made a decade ago. Each part is connected by staples which are invented more recently than some hardwares, such as nuts and bolts. The middle parts are linked with a rubber to be easy to wear without others' help.
