His personal work artistic work is characterized by the type of layered collage qualities we see in &#8220;Unyielding Reprise-Prometheus.&#8221; Of his work, he says:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">The modern view of technology, photography especially, is that through mechanical and technological devices of perception we will be able to have a clear and concise vision of the world. Photography sees beyond the human eye, seeing further. My work challenges this modern concept. My work is about a vision of time. Time for us is set in a linear narrative. We are born and we someday die. Both are distinct moments in the timeline of existence.<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">The images I create represent how we structure our lives in relation to memory and experience. The formal qualities of my work force a reexamination of time, in relation to perception. I am dismantling the structure and the importance of the single image, and resorting it though the technology of Photoshop, giving it a new structure . . .<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>You can view more of his fine art and commercial photography at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonfoto.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.simonfoto.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we reported in the November edition of 15 Bytes, Simon Blundell recently took over as the 15 Bytes image editor.
