THE GEOGRAPHIES OF TIME
​
AN EXHIBITION BY ANNA MASTERS
Re-imagining how we 'tell' the time
How do we navigate time? How do we root ourselves in a moment? When we are able to conceive of time and space as infinite expanses, what systems are in place to allow us to connect with a sense of ‘here’, a sense of ‘now’?
There are moments that last a lifetime. There are years that squeeze themselves into a dot of memory. And there are occasions that keep recurring, replaying; eternal, incessant.
The regularity of the stark tick-tocking of the clock stands at odds with our experience of time, yet is our only way of navigating it. Tick, tock, tick, tock. Clinical, linear, predicable, fixed.
What if there were ways of navigating time that allowed us to be more intentional about how and where we placed ourselves; systems of navigation which were responsive, malleable, elastic?
The Geographies of Time is an exploratory installation which considers new modes of articulating and conceptualising our relationship with time through three bodies of work; systems of navigating the landscape of time.
