Ellen Cantor examines light, time, and memory, and their combination through various junctures. She looks at colors, shape, and texture, as well as studying the passing of a period. Her images display a flow, through beauty and awe that can only circulate through this kind of mixture. Cantor begins considering the light, and how it changes within a certain phase (from morning to night, summer to winter, or one year to the next). An investigation of the past (in a general purpose) and her personal history subsequently compliments this transition in time. “By photographing and re-contextualizing precious memories, I have sought to understand how life proceeds, and then, ultimately disappears. I document the artifacts of the past in order to enrich the present.”
