A cluster of fragmented heads emerges from two fused glass negatives, shaped by the warm tones of brown and yellow. Each face is partially lost, partially reborn, forming an accidental crowd created by time, decay, and the merging of photographic history into contemporary art.

The Crowd That Time Created captures a remarkable fusion of identities pulled from two deteriorated early 20th-century glass negatives. As the emulsion decayed and the plates fused, multiple heads appeared—some clear, some distorted, all carrying the textures and colours of time.

Rendered in rich browns and deep yellow tones, the image holds the warmth of aged photographic chemistry while embracing a bold contemporary aesthetic. These heads were never meant to be seen together; they are the accidental gathering of strangers from different moments, united through damage and restored through artistic transformation.

Collectors drawn to conceptual portraiture and archival reimagining will find this piece compelling. It speaks to the unpredictability of history, the beauty of fragmentation, and the emotional power of giving lost subjects a new stage. This artwork stands as a visual conversation between past and present—a striking centrepiece for any contemporary interior.
