All in time
Sarah Boothroyd for S
The clock ticks; the moon waxes; the autumn leaves turn crimson. Time is as ubiquitous as it is elusive. Guided by science and science fiction, All In Time (2011) traverses the timeless mystery of time itself. Time is inextricably linked with Space, the latter of which travels endlessly along a North-South continuum and an East-West continuum. The relationship between the cardinal directions, including South, and the phenomenon of Time is contiguous and undeniable.
