As if someone had pressed pause and they, while on the move, suddenly froze and remained motionless, as if hovering in the air. This pause, this moment in time, is suddenly inscribed in the body of reality and creates a notch, irreversible and indelible in time, since what is written, cannot be written off, its trace always remains engraved. Thus, with cars stuck in the ice, we have at the same time the momentum of the event and simultaneously the “expansion” of the time of the event, which is constantly shifted and spreads in perpetuity.
As with the passage of time, the ice, the carrier of the ephemeral nature of things, will be liquefied and melted, I photograph the frozen cars aiming to capture the border where the momentary and the eternal meet. This paradoxical pairing of the expansion of the fleeting moment of time, is in turn trapped in the lens and re-registered as part of our memory and identity. This moment that can never be repeated unaltered but leaves on us such indelible marks and feelings, that it impresses upon us and follows us until the end.
