TRACES OF TIME

curated by Dores Sacquegna

from 20 May to 2 June 2023

“Time is the substance of which I am made, It’s a river in flood that drags me along but I am the river, It is a tiger that devours me but I am the tiger, It is a Fire that consumes me but I am the Fire” (Borges)

THE THEME – This River, which we call Time, is ourselves. If we want to stop the River, we must “alchemically” strip ourselves of our barks to center ourselves on our inner rhythm. In the Greek philosophical thought, time is a single and homogeneous flow, in which all things subject to change are immersed. This flow is mostly circular and its symbol is the wheel or the ouroboros, the snake that eats its own tail. Temporality can be configured as a fundamental dimension of existence. Through the dimension of temporality, man on the one hand recognizes and builds himself in his being and in his becoming, on the other he relates to the world of other subjects and to the physical world. Each of us fits into a time that already exists: a mythical time, a historical time and a cosmic or hierophanic time. These dimensions interact closely and continuously, and represent, for each other, a condition of possibility of experience and knowledge. Mythical time is cyclical time, where everything repeats itself, it can indicate the time in which the celebration of a ritual is located, with actions that lead to a mythical archetype that evolves by changing its appearance and becoming globalized in modern society. Historical time it is a period of time in which events have occurred that generate a change. Cosmic or hierophanic time can designate cosmic rhythms, reveal the absolute, the supernatural, the superhistorical, the eternal return and the intuition about the periodicity of Life and Death. Without interrupting the linear progress of time, man can spiritually return to his origins, when he discovers in the world and in himself the traces of the divine, that is, of the primitive source of being. The prophets of ancient times called this time The Apocalypse and destiny and darkness were always connected to it, but here we want to see it rather as a Revelation, the unveiling of what stands between us and our true divine Self.

Welcome works that represent these concepts. All the exhibited works will be published in the catalogue.

VENUE – The exhibition is set up in the Renaissance venue of the Palmieri Foundation in Lecce, in the old city.
