Time is a concept. We measure minutes, days, years according to a reference system that orders our lives, work, and social structures, and that acts as a tool of communication and orientation. By complying to a linear time structure, we look back at where we come from and calculate where we go. Gilles Deleuze once wrote: “Nothing real is produced by time. It is habit that produces: as a system, habit produces the past as rule for the future.” With the exhibition SEEMINGLY INCURABLE SENSATION OF TEMPORAL AMBIGUITY at KRONE COURONNE, the duality between the felt and the calculated time, the sensorial and the quantified is explored, pondering the questions: How do we feel and experience the passing of time? Has the tool of communication become a tool of manipulation? What would happen if we freed ourselves from the concept of time?
