A Picture Worth 10,000 Moments

In a new work by Japanese born, New York based artist, Shinichi Maruyama attempts to capture the motion of the human body in its most natural form. Each figure in her photographic collection features approximately 10,000 stills of a dancer in motion. Each moment is then fused together to achieve the resulting image, as incredible as a brush stroke or destructive as a tornado, the human figure is open to the interpretation of the beholder.

By putting together uninterrupted individual moments, the resulting image as a whole will appear to be something different from what actually exists.
With regard to these two viewpoints, a connection can be made to a human being’s perception of presence in life.
