Catching the Wings of Time

by A. J. Kahn

Tennessee Williams once said he intended to "snatch the eternal out of the fleeting" which is "the great magic trick of human existence. The older I get, the more I consciously try to "snatch" the fleeting moment with the fervent desire to hold it for the rest of my time. That may be a reason photography has come to appeal so deeply to me. I see the sunlight falling through my window shutters or the way a haze forms around the streetlamps at a certain few moments at twilight or my beloved Sunny curling her toes in pleasure as she sleeps in her warm home with her mommy nearby. I want to photograph it all.

When Vaizaado [link] asked me about a theme for our work together, I told him it should be about time and the world. At my age, those two realities overtake small, local concerns with their utter magnitude. From Tennessee Williams' concept of time as the enemy of all of us to Andrew Marvell's argument to his coy mistress ("had we but world enough and time"), literature constantly reminds us of the primacy of time and the world.
