The Time-Light Map was a one year project exploring the nature of memory. 

It consists of a physical model made up of seven layers, each representing a different element of our physical world: 
air - ground - fire - gravity - duality - water - entropy 

Each completed layer was photographed, and then incorporated into the construction of subsequent layers. The images are, therefore, the surviving representations of the model at each stage of its development (except the final one). 

Made of clear acrylic and white card, the model is almost entirely transparent. The colors depicted in the images were generated from the reflection and refraction of natural light. They were transitory and dependent on the quality of light, the weather, the time of day and the season when they were photographed. 

The images represent fragments of time — memories.
