First Thursday Performance of Momoko Suzuki’s ‘Untitled Drawing Project, portrait series, Night’ - July 1, 6pm

"there is an exhilaratingly deep range to take in"
The Mirror, The Ticket

In this exhibition we see the artist as philosopher, scientist, historian and archaeologist; 17 time-keepers and chroniclers explore the theme of TIME.

St Martins graduate Momoko Suzuki is in residence throughout TIME completing her ongoing time-based drawing installation, which fills an entire 12x10ft wall. She continues her impressive drawing for visitors to the First Thursdays event on 1st July between 6-9pm. Plus, very cheap bar!

We are also pleased to announce that both Jarik Jongman and Caroline Walker have been selected for the Threadneedle Prize.

Time includes works from the following artists:
Anthea Henderson, Boa Swindler, Caroline Walker, Chantal Powell, Chiara Williams, Flora Parrott, H. Williams, Ingrid Berthon-Moine, Jarik jongman, Jayne Wilton, Liane Lang, Liesel Böckl, Lorraine Clarke, Momoko Suzuki, Phil Illingworth, Rob Miller, Stephanie Wehowski

Time is by definition the measure used to sequence events. In this exhibition we see the artist as philosopher, scientist, historian and archaeologist. The artist marks, traces, passes, commemorates, measures, captures or defies time in one way or another, with works that confront and mediate life experiences, cycles and rites of passage. Narratives are used to examine and analyse sequences of events as a way of providing perspective on the problems of the present. For individuals, time holds economic value and reminds us of our own fragility and mortality and as it flows, time is at once the past, the present and the future.
