The series started out as an examination of the ways that technology was altering the lives of Pillsbury’s closest friends, but when he and Noland got together that examination turned inward and Pillsbury began to make pictures representing his own life and newfound sexuality. At first, as a just-out gay man, he was shy about the work he appeared in, especially images like HBO’s Rome, Thursday, October 13th, 2005 12-12:50 AM and Nate and Me, Lost, Wednesday, September 22nd, 2004 8-9 PM the latter seen here for the first time, that depict the artist ...

Freezing the passage of time is the camera's most conventional trick. American artist, Matthew Pillsbury, takes this further and his photographs capture the experience of time, both physically and psychologically. Utilising his definitive style of natural light and long exposure these new images capture the human traffic through the extraordinary and unseen spaces of London's business and cultural institutions and private rooms. The figures are absorbed in and illuminated by, back-lit displays and incidental lighting.
