Chronologies captures the passing of time through a methodical visual sequence, revealing subtle day-to-day and year-to-year transformations in landscapes and environments. Richard Misrach’s photographic approach emphasizes change and continuity, inviting viewers to consider the layers of history embedded in natural and human-made settings.
The book’s 280 pages present a rich, deliberate arrangement of images that explore themes of temporality and memory. Misrach’s work uses repetition and variation to construct a visual timeline, allowing the audience to observe the slow evolution of places and the impact of time on their appearance.
