| TWENTY FOUR by photographer Séamus Sullivan examines the idea that there has been a shift in the way contemporary Irish urban dwellers experience time. The images were exposed for one hour at selected points around Dublin city - with each hour corresponding to the 24 hours in a day. By giving every situation a standard 60 minute exposure regardless of the time of day or night, human activity is rendered visible relative to the speed at which it occurs. Traffic delays on the motorway or the lengthy queue for a late-night taxi leave little or no trace while worshipping, studying or sitting down to eat with friends or family leave a more lasting presence. |
