EGOTISM ORBIT

INSTALLATION: The Form Behind the Form. Time defined as Form

Continued

... Both the time flowing through time and time represented through externally gauze lashed embalming of the object's form. The time process is temporarily halted for a period, in which the embalming technique gives associations to a particular historical period of time, while the object's shape in itself does not refer to the same time

It provides the object with displaced time meanings contained in itself.

The container hangs suspended in space at a height that allows the viewer to look into the time period inside the container. When the viewer enters the container is the person inside time. Inside, the container is covered with mirrors, which mirror many times. Human is in the violence of time, and perceive time as a pressure, so the experience inside the container becomes claustrophobic and self-referential.

The now moving in time, independent of the moment. A tape loops forever with the artist's voice reciting nownownownownownownownow. There is only one now within time.

The container is open at bottom and top. Its time has stagnated in its free-floating placement. A perpetual state of itself, while the sequences of events that are inside in time (present, space, sound) are variable and flowing through like the river Kronos.

The container is incomprehensible, like the concept of time, but the materials and form language of it are set together so they give the audience a wholeness experience beyond time and space. The exhibition space is transformed into a scene, where the container is subject to the spectator attendance, and the almost architectural container invites audience into its room, as a performance which takes place in a physical place.
