The Missing Moments project originates from the realisation that photography has become a recursive system of conventions of representation, as the photographs we encounter form our perception of what kind of things are to be photographed. Since a sight must be perceived worthy of photographing to prompt taking a photograph, we might therefore altogether miss out on some potentially essential aspects of reality not sanctioned as worthy of photographing. Yet reality is an unbroken, fluid continuum, but we tend to perceive and preserve life as a collection of separate, extracted highlights and culmination points. This is further effectively both produced and reproduced by photography as images greatly inform our memories, knowledge and perception of the world.

By observing habitually neglected in-between moments and sights potentially falling outside the traditional scope of what constitutes an optimal frame, these images aim to point out that each moment should be of equal importance. This line of thought is informed by the principle of mathematical induction, which, applied to time, suggests that each individual moment is equally indispensable for the continuity of reality.

Ultimately the crux of the work lies in challenging and intercepting the habitual, logical interpretations and accustomed perceptions of reality, and addressing the constriction of conventions of representation.
