Under the
Same Sky

Every morning, millions of people look up at the sky. Some see eternal beauty, some feel time slipping away too fast. This project visualises 50 horizons across the globe revealing not just when the sun rises and sets, but how differently we experience time.

​​

“Time present and time past

Are both perhaps present in time future,

And time future contained in time past.

If all time is eternally present

All time is unredeemable”

 

Our notion of time has evolved with our increasingly finite abilities to measure and track time.

However, before the invention of clocks and mechanical time, we chased the sun while watching

the sky, thus perceiving the passage of time. 

In a world that follows a fixed idea of time, a segmented version in the form of a clock, with divide-

ed time zones I anchor myself around the question - “ What if we could share time”?

​

​The installation evolves into projection mappings that illustrate the real-time movement of the Sun across different time zones. It captures the stages of a day—symbolizing birth through the radiant patterns of sunrise and the decline of day in the quiet beauty of a sunset. These moments humble us, aligning our mental, physical, and emotional selves with nature’s rhythms.

Through technology, the piece is an attempt to create ineffable experiences that resonate deeply offering a glimpse into the crepuscular mood of existence, blurring the lines between beginnings and endings, reminding us that we are all under the same sky.
