Now Will Not Be With Us Forever by Maurice van Es

A collection of works by Dutch artist Maurice van Es.

In this work entitled "Now Will Not Be With Us Forever," Es deals with the essential aspect of photography, which is the preservation of time that never stops. Es photographs the environments and people that are closest to him today, such as his younger brother going to school every morning, his grandfather taking off his sweater, the interior of his home, such as carpets and blankets, details of his clothes, and his father's car that came to pick him up at the station, and compiles them into eight booklets. Es's warm perspective and affection for his subjects are skillfully expressed through a fragmented and systematic method that seems to contradict his emotions.
