EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing print from Memory Lane Prints, we witness a peculiar sight that perfectly captures the essence of the 1970s. Kevin Atherton, a young man hailing from Brandon, County Durham, takes on an unusual role as he becomes a human clock for one hour. The image exudes both humor and disbelief at the notion of someone being paid £50 to demonstrate how to waste time. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time from February 1974, it's hard not to question society's values and priorities during that era. While some may see it as an absurd spectacle or even consider it a waste of resources, others might find amusement in witnessing such unconventional endeavors. The photograph showcases Kevin Atherton embodying time itself – his presence serving as a reminder of our constant battle against its relentless passage. It sparks contemplation about how we choose to spend our precious hours and whether there is inherent value in every moment or if some are inherently wasteful. Beyond its thought-provoking nature, this image also serves as a testament to the creativity and ingenuity prevalent during the 1970s. It encapsulates an era where individuals were willing to push boundaries and challenge societal norms through their artistic expressions. Ultimately, this print invites us all to reflect on our own relationship with time while offering a glimpse into an extraordinary event that unfolded decades ago - reminding us that sometimes even seemingly trivial moments can leave lasting impressions.
