Photography and phenomena of time
Abstract
Time is one of the most intuitive most difficult phenomena of human consciousness. Everyday habit defines temporality as a gradual presentation of the future, “now” and the past, it forms the solid tradition of the relationship with time. Photography allows to see the past, hereafter and present as a single point, it brakes the linear continua of time, showing the temporal stream as a set of scattered fragments. Image destroys the three-part structure of time, presumes that past and future of photography space are equal. Photography is not fastened to the existence; conditions of the picture are not determined by the time. Photography raises doubts in common structure of temporality: photography raises the question about how arranged time.
