Gianluca Trifilo l’homme d’argent Zürich
23.7.2024

This event is internal; an inspection and experiment with my own consciousness; it is an effort of mental focus on the present moment and its observation. Using a point (brush trace) as a quantum, I will create a linear record of time in 12 hours according to the fundamental definition of time:

„Time is a continuous quantity, an a priori feature of the world, not defined by anything. A certain, usually periodic sequence of events is used as a basis for measurement, which is considered to be a reference point for a certain period, that occurs in an apparently irreversible succession from the past, through the present, and into the future.“ (“Oxford Dictionaries: Time“. Oxford University Press. 2011)

The flexibility of time is necessary to prevent it from becoming a “prison”. I lock myself in a rigid framework for half a day in order to observe the texture of time and the changes in my internal landscape.

This experiment will be performed in silence, with a vector of recording from left to right.

Visitors are welcome to come to the art space any time between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM to see the artist perform. You can swing by for a couple minutes or stay an hour, it is completely up to you.
