Artspace Steps Out Of Time
The video installation from Tsedaye Makonnen is part of a series of works that’s part of “Dyschronics,” running now at Artspace through April 16. As the accompanying description of the show reads, “ ‘Dyschronics’ is an exhibition that does not recognize clocks, linear progression, or chrono-logies. It is an antagonism to the ‘Western Hour’ via interruptions, waiting, transitions, intervals, and in-between moments.… Acknowledging that the modern construction of time, composed of chronos and kairos, or quantitative and qualitative time, is an imposition, ‘Dyschronics’revels in temporalities that resist a linear, monolithic tempo.”
