Book of Days is a photographic journey that weaves celestial lore, mythology, and contemporary imagination. Inspired by Ovid’s Fasti, a poetic chronicle written during the poet’s exile, this project reinterprets ancient narratives through the lens of the present, creating a liminal world where time folds and weaves the past and present into a single entity, transforming ruins, forests, and surreal terrains into liminal constructs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach photographic work, hand-manipulated and re-photographed, acts as a form of visual alchemy, weaving together the physical reality of the present with the imagination of ancient mythologies. Ancient figures and places appear suspended between worlds, inviting viewers into a dreamlike realm defined by ritual, divinity, and whispers of antiquity. The series reflects on how myth continues to inhabit modern consciousness, invoking a meditation on continuity and wonder.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-ccp-props=\"{}\" class=\"EOP Selected SCXW77445905 BCX8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the photographer\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"TextRun SCXW130656606 BCX8\" lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW130656606 BCX8\"\u003eAlvin Ng i\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"TextRun SCXW130656606 BCX8\" lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW130656606 BCX8\"\u003es a Singapore-based photographic artist and educator whose practice interweaves antiquity and modernity.
