Artist Talk: A Shared Sense of Time

  • DC Arts Center 2438 18th Street Northwest Washington, DC, 20009 United States (map)

Join curator Jeffry Cudlin for an Artist Talk on A Shared Sense of Time. The exhibition currently showing at The DC Arts Center brings together works by visual artists and musicians who rely on unusual pulses or conceptions of tempo to invite altered states of consciousness. The six participating artists, all connected to or living in the DMV, use field recordings, found biological rhythms, or rules-based improvisation to make disorienting aesthetic experiences out of familiar everyday phenomena. The exhibition asks visitors to engage in what author V.S. Naipaul once described as “finding experience where I thought there had been nothing”—and to contemplate the intersections of domestic spaces, the natural world, and their own mortality.
