Marcus Welch- Artist Post


http://davidcampany.com/



David Campany is a distinguished writer and a well-known photographer who has published several books and also a number of photography projects. These pictures are from his project titled a Handful of dust, which is a collection of pictures consisting of old scenes and some very dusty antiques. These pictures compelled me because I am always taken back by the majesty and nostalgia of an object that has sat still for so long that microscopic particles have collected and formed a blanket of time. It is also interesting to me how Campany was able to capture the grittiness of the scenes by making the dust the star of the show. I am a fan of any art that can re-crerate something most people consider a nuisance into something timeless that can be enjoyed by generations and transcend moments of time and space through the infinite.
