time passes

Deborah Parkin

time passes

When things worried me, either as a child or adult, my grandad would always say to me that ‘time passes’. Whatever seemed challenging or scary will pass – you will pass through it. It sounds simple but it is a saying that stays with me even now.

These images are memories. Not always actual events but feelings, emotions conveyed from the recess of my mind to the camera.

I have made this calender so that I can add new work.

    very thought-provoking and emotional. ‘time passes’ is a very confronting title and theme and you’ve handled it really well. A sort of similar philosophy I’ve come across on my travels is ‘nothing good lasts forever… but neither does anything bad’

  • Deborah Parkin replied

    Thank you so much berndt2 (must get to know your real name – or is that it – if so sorry didn’t mean to be rude :)) I love that philosophy and it made me think about my latest images. I photograph really for 2 reasons – one to record my family (kids in particular) and the other is to project my feelings and memories. Thankfully most of the time I record my kids lives they are happy – I may post an image of them playing hopscotch without my baggage :) – similar image, totally different meaning. Thanks for that – has given me food for thought.
