Time is the only thing that does not exist outside of us
«TIME IS THE ONLY THING THAT DOES NOT EXIST OUTSIDE OF US*»: CYLAND Video Program at the Non-Stop Festival, GROUND Solyanka
As part of the festival “Non-stop” at the GROUND Solyanka gallery, the new program of 10 video works from the CYLAND archive are presented.
Difficult times bring a different relationship with time and space to our lives. The conditions of the pandemic have reversed many of the familiar meanings, and we feel them somewhat more sharply. This, on the one hand, exacerbated the intimization of consciousness, immersion in complex inner experiences and fantasies. The man became more attentive to the objects around him, as if looking at them through a magnifying glass. On the other hand, the perception of universal human values (happiness, freedom) has increased, and a different awareness of real and virtual worlds and their interactions has been added.
Most of the works are part of the new addition to the video archive, many authors are presented for the first time on the archive’s website.
