THe Time Thief

Artist Statement:

"The Time Thief" Collection is Ubuntu Fine Art's inaugural exhibition, named after my moniker, The Time Thief. This global collection aims to showcase my versatility as a photographer and a storyteller, capturing moments that embody the spirit of Ubuntu - unity in diversity.

The collection is an expedition into culturally diverse environments from Abu Dhabi, Barbados, Brazil, Bali, Paris, Kenya to Horseshoe Bend and Lower Antelope Canyon in Arizona, Glacier National Park in Montana, National Harbor in Prince George's County, Maryland, and my beloved home, Philadelphia. Each locale offers a unique vista of human experience and the imprints of my time on these lands.

The collection comprises a variety of photographs that speak the universal language of visual expression, immortalizing moments in time that reflect the essence of these places. From architectural grandeur to vibrant human interaction, from picturesque natural landscapes to intricate cityscapes, every photo represents a chapter in our shared global story.

Taking inspiration from my journey across the world, this collection serves as a cultural crossroads, blending traditions with contemporary themes, and fostering dialogue that transcends geographical boundaries. It encourages unity, mutual admiration, and connection, resonating with the spirit of Ubuntu.

With "The Time Thief" Collection, I pay respect to the resilience and beauty of our diverse world, inviting viewers to step into the unique dynamics of each captured location. This exhibition enriches the understanding of these communities through the eye of the beholder, aligning with the Ubuntu philosophy of our shared human experience, and invites viewers to witness and partake in a visual symphony that spans the globe, redefining the perception of time and space.
