Here are the summers
Here are the days
Here are the moments
This is the place
This is you waving
This is the sea
This is you smiling
And this is me
Camera, camera
Here you are walking
This is the sun
Here you are laughing
When you were young
And there are people
How some have changed
Some of them gone now
Some still the same
Camera, camera
I chose the angles
I chose the frames
Some faces blurred now
And so are the names
Here are the traces
Figures and scenes
Here are the shadows
Of what we have been
Camera, camera |

| "Looking
at old family photos. Finding images of other lives on market
stalls. Like the scattered, dispersed contents of a person's
memory. I've been collecting fragments of super8 film and photos
for a long time now, ordinary, domestic stuff, and I'm always
surprised how potent these images can be. Even the process is
remarkable. Old sunlight leaving shadows on film. Quite magical
really." |
