Syncope #2

Photography

In musical context the term syncope means an unexpected variation in the rhythm. It describes a disruption of an otherwise harmonious system. These photographs play with the concept of harmony in the sense that harmony is the balance between temperate tension and tensionless uniformity. Harmony arises where chaos merges with order and order into chaos.

“The human mind delights in finding pattern — so much so that we often mistake coincidence or forced analogy for profound meaning. No other habit of thought lies so deeply within the soul of a small creature trying to make sense of a complex world not constructed for it.”
