TIME MACHINE

A TRANSMEDIA GROUP SHOW > JUNE.06-29.2008
Curated by Amelia Winger-Bearskin for the Perpetual Art Machine [PAM]

Meat Market Gallery is pleased to present TIME MACHINE, a selection of trans-media works from the online international video collective Perpetual Art Machine [PAM], curated by PAM artist Amelia Winger-Bearskin. Winger-Bearskin’s careful selection of video works, timebased objects and sound pieces transform the gallery space into a time machine ready to steal moments of your time and store them for future generations. Access the future, see the recorded past and donate your time. Every moment that is consumed during the course of this show will be given to the international consortium for the preservation of time well spent. The front gallery features a video portal, a time capsule and other objects from past and future. In the rear gallery, viewers will find a compaction of three years of performance art, archived through a residue of sound.

An interactive performance at the exhibition?s opening on June 6 will utilize the manufactured darkness of the gallery space to ease the audience into what can only be described as a contraction of time and space. Spelunk around the gallery and find the hidden gems. Be prepared, these works will make time travelers of us all.

Viewers beware - this is an out of control time machine. Who knows where you might end up.
