Time is very delicate thing. It is “Battle Field” where cultures fight or face individual experiences, dimention that goes up then individual express his preferences. Also it is a labaratory where new cultural models are placed in practics without any limits. The project “Time slides” seeks to create this reflection of individual, therefore for a society which demands some “healthy integration” and time is evaluation symbol.

“Time slides” project

Quite deep conception, but very simple expression; small bath with soup inside. Took hard for me to understand because I had only a Portuguese explanation of the object. Anyway this one is “stand out of the crowd” clock.

Rui Palma, “Untitled”

Rui Palma’s “Untitled” clock let feel that time consist of all various things/activities we have in our life; music, friends, lunch, studies, playstation, love, etc

Paula Pires, “Turning Clock”

“Turning Clock” by Paula Pires was simple but nice and it is just what it’s name a clock which turns. Maybe not so practical, but still with an idea that everything goes round this clock.

“Mr. Clock”

“Mr. Clock” is also was one of my favourites. It remind me of some fairytale character from some old animation I can’t remember. Whatever. Seems really funny and made nicely.

“Swing”

“Swing” uninion of classic and modern times. Devided into hours and minutes, but in different way. Still easy to understand and use it. Boa!

This exhibition available until March 16, so if you by any chance will stay in Lisboa at that time. Take your time and visit it.
