Sculpting Time - a symposium
In three panel discussions we consider sculpture in an expanded way by including for example change, time, sound and imagination as an essential part of spatial practices.
The panelists, artists and/or researchers working with space and time, are invited to discuss in the panel and with the audience about their own perspective on material, temporal, spatial, historical, fictional, conceptual and societal aspects of their artistic practices. We ponder on the different ways artistic practices can augment understanding and experiencing of spatiality though a material, tangible notion of time.
