David Lebrun’s latest project is a large-scale, multi-year work in progress to create a transformative encounter between the present and the past through an immersive experience with change itself. Beginning with high-resolution images of artifacts, art objects and architectural details from different eras and photographed at various sites around the world, including museums, churches and temples, Lebrun animates the changes in their forms across millenia. The results are an awe inspiring tour of human ingenuity, imagination, belief and craft as it expressed itself from the Paleolithic period through the Middle Ages, and from Mesoamerica to Europe, the Middle East and Indian Asia.
