“The Weekend” by Isabel M. Martinez

The Weekend is a project created by Chilean photographer Isabel Martinez. I’m really captivated by the concept Isabel was following in the making of this series. As she explains, these pictures are visual confrontations with the unstoppable: Time.


Don’t we all wish there was a way of changing the timely order of some things? Maybe even reconstruct it for out personal preference?


The reconstruction of time for her personal preference is exactly what Isabel beautifully depicted in these pictures. She edited out those long, tiring weekdays and merged the much more enjoyable Saturdays and Sundays into one shot.


“Time and space are dissected and spliced.

Cut and pasted, a new image of time emerges; dual, parallel, bi-lateral.”
