‘Time Slice’ Mesmerizing Photo Show The Same Location At Different Times Of Day

The Singapore-based photographer Fong Qi Wei, has challenged the idea that a photo is a single captured moment. He has produced a series of images called ‘Time is a Dimension.’ They capture the passage of time by combining numerous photographs to compose an existence rather than just a moment. From Fong Qi Wei: ‘This series of images are mostly landscapes, seascapes, and cityscapes, and they are a single composite made from sequences that span 2-4 hours, mostly of sunrises and sunsets.’

“So I played around with the tools of digital photography and post-processing to give you this series: Time is a dimension. This series of images are mostly landscapes, seascapes, and cityscapes, and they are a single composite made from sequences that span 2-4 hours, mostly of sunrises and sunsets.

The basic structure of a landscape is present in every piece. But each panel or concentric layer shows a different slice of time, which is related to the adjacent panel/layer. The transition from daytime to night is gradual and noticeable in every piece, but would not be something you expect to see in a still image.”

These stunning photographs are not just colorful depictions of city life – they are also part of a visionary attempt to capture the passage of time in still images.

Each shot is even more mesmerizing when animated, as evident in the artist’s collection of gifs.
