This series shows the fragmented way of living that appears in our modern zap culture. In the streets of  big busy modern cities it seems as if everyone is in a hurry.

People don’t have time to speak to eachother and when they are at one place they are already with their minds at another place. They want to do as much as possible in the time they have affraid to miss out on something, but thereby only experiencing things superficially.

These drawings and paintings are based on movies and photos made in the crowded area’s Shinjuku and Shibuya in Tokyo, Japan.

In this series I wanted to show the passing of time.

As a startingpoint for the paintings I shot photographs with a long schuttertime from movies. For the following drawings I used my own movies shot at Central Station Amsterdam.
