For A Shared Sense of Time, curator Jeffry Cudlin 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.
