Timothy Everett Bogue: March 2008 Archives
Photography describes the world around us. A reflection. An imprint. A memory. Thoughts. My photographs portray the usual stuff from my point of view. My photographic direction is to use cameras of the 50's to describe the visual world as seen though the photographic eye of, give or take, fifty years ago. Was their vision different. No. Yes. I expect is was.
We can only approximate the past. We really cannot go back into the past and think their thoughts. Even if we traveled back into the past we could not feel their feelings. Times were different. As were the cameras.
This is a good comparison. I like to say that we are all smart enough to figure this oxymoron out on our own. Make our own conclusions. This is the art part - the feelings part.
Therefore, to see the world today in the photographic eye of fifty or so years ago.
