Temporality and trace are questioned through seven diverse perspectives in more
waiting just a little closer.
Through process, material and labor, artists’ investigate how the passage of time influences our identity and our world. Simple acts, when repeated, can become tests of endurance, gestures of love or just possibly ways to quiet the mind.
Interpreting the pulse and passage of time leaves the artist to wonder:
Where is the mark made?
Who sees it?
What marks remain and what are erased?
What is left behind?
The traces of labor hold a duality in meaning, signifying both the physical act of working and the culmination of the creation process. Informed by feminist perspectives, we interrogate the ways in which gender and power, love and work, intersect with time and memory.
Our work challenges dominant narratives and invites our viewers to reflect on their own relationship with time, memory, and identity. These intersections ask us all to consider not only the past, but also the present and future.
Through the push and pull of action and waiting, we explore what changes become possible if we exercise more waiting just a little closer.
