Er is geen tijd. Of is er niets dan tijd?
Er is geen tijd. Of is er niets dan tijd?
The last sentences from the poem Eb by M. Vasalis (Margaretha Droogleever Fortuyn-Leenmans) is a series of six life-size charcoal drawings.
teken de tijd
The poem inspired me to think about a spatial work, which has taken shape in the installation teken de tijd in which six generations of women are shown. Especially for the exhibition eb (July 26 - October 25 2020) at Museum Schokland, the Netherlands. these six life-size rear views of women are printed on white sheets hanging on a clothesline. The clothesline is the place where the relation to time expresses and shows itself. Women of different ages on white sheets waving on a clothesline. Six generations of women become visible in low tide. The low- and high tide cycle manifests itself in drying of the laundry. eb is a temporary condition in which we find ourselves again, but is there progress in that cycle? As time goes on she seems to stand still.
