WHAT IS YOUR EXISTENCE LIKE TODAY?
CAN YOU HEAR THE SOUNDS?
ARE YOU AWARE OF YOURSELF?
Presence centralizes around being fully aware of an exact moment in time; by becoming wholesomely involved and attentive to the world around oneself and one’s existence within it. Through the senses, one is able to absorb and interact with this immersive state of being. This collaborative space was constructed in order to evoke these feelings, however, what you feel is entirely up to you.
This space, created from found materials, manipulated clocks, drumheads, fabric, and other discarded pieces, is an area where people can step away from their busy lives and simply feel and experience a single moment in time. The combination of different styles of work and materials creates an experience that becomes that of one’s own. The value of time is so emphasized in our society, but the lack of it should not prevent one from feeling in tune with oneself. The distractions in life—routine, technology, disfunction, anxieties—cannot be erased from the present, but rather must be radically accepted for what they are. These interruptions cause holes in the emotions and senses that are crucial to truly living everyday life.By stopping these vicious cycles,even if just for a moment, one can achieve the experience of the present.
We invite you to perceive your own experience through the senses that are evoked through our piece in this exact moment in time, for this moment will never be re-lived or re-experienced, which reflects the true beauty of taking the time to live and feel exactly as you are right now.
