"Present Perfect Continuous" Exhibition
NURTUREart
This event has ended.
The present perfect continuous verb tense speaks of things that began in the past, continue into the present, and are still happening - actions rooted in the past that simultaneously create a sense of anticipation as to what will transpire in the immediate future. For these artists, the process of creation is often more important than the finished product. Through the process, they recall memories, document the past, and work to understand their new surroundings and how they fit in. Memories are broken apart, analyzed, and incorporated into current experiences to create new realities and give the artists new methods for situating themselves in the present. The works become narratives that relate the past, engage the present, and propose methods for navigating the future.
