1ST OF AUGUST 2019

AN 8 HOUR COLLABORATIVE PERFORMANCE 12 NOON – 8PM

Time ‘the conscious experience of duration’ 1 . MacLennan and Corrigan-Breathnach’s performance will Look at taking time to pause, observe and consider how we as human beings try to measure time.

Our constructed measurement of ‘Time’ can give us the illusion of a sense of control, there is also an awareness that we are not in control, we are frail beings, unable to stop the flow of the system we live in, which appears continuous, a system in continuous flux that we are powerless to stop.
