Eitan Vitkon
Born:1967- in Israel 1996-2003 Lived and Worked in NYC. All work is pure photography and not computer generated. The manipulations on the images occur while shooting through the set of mirrors water, glass and chromed surfaces. (I do edit images with more the one frame as panoramic). The body of work is based on the notion of movement and duration. The subject matter as well as the technical tool being the camera are both challenged to their maximum. I am a painter and architect by training however drawn to the camera to achieve a timeless spatial territory between realism and the surreal. Each project begins with intensive observation, mostly urban landscape and architecture landmarks that unfold into a new self. By capturing moments and time I seek for hidden significant qualities and intangible truths.The work strips the skin of reality into new time textures and depths of the surface we live in.
