Exhibition Details
Four Dilations presents four artistic positions that counter the dominant ways in which time is kept today. The exhibition’s title references temporal dilation, a physical phenomenon that describes how time can pass at different rates for observers with distinct frames of reference.
Sculpture and installation developed from time-based practices including dance, film, and sound composition probe the spatial and material fabric of the exhibition space.

Additional Details
Four Dilations convenes an international group of artists who came of age under the new regime of digital time management: Oslo-based Nikhil Vettukattil (b. 1990, Bengaluru), Berlin-based Richard Sides (b. 1985, Rotherham), New York-based Nandi Loaf (b. 1991, New York) and New York-based duo Michèle Graf and Selina Grüter (b. 1987, Wetzikon; b. 1991, Zurich).
Reconsidering the concept of “now” under technocratic systems that govern life in the twenty-first century, their works use techniques of distortion, recursion, and elongation.
