In conjunction with his exhibition Other Suns at the Southern Alberta Art Gallery, David Miller reflects on his works made with light-sensitive paper and his ongoing “live photographs.” In this talk, Miller discusses how light becomes both subject and medium, situating Other Suns within current dialogues on latency, perception, and the unstable boundaries between presence, memory, and disappearance.
