Object Space
3 objects presented in a small room with a very strong atmosphere of its own:
A teacup on a stand.
A box of sand with an electric motor at the centre turning a wooden bar once an hour and drawing a circle.
A truck carrying a battery and an illuminated arrow standing motionless on a railway line.
At one end of the line were these words:
MOTION(LESS) TIME STOPPED
silence
breathless
speechless
timeless
nowhere
nothing
On the walls were 2 drawings. The text on the main drawing is this:
Teapots and toothbrushes live in present time, they do not know until they're held that they can move.
Time continues, objects are lifeless.
Time draws a circle in the sand.
A truck travels motionless along a railway line.
Hats can fly and teacups can move.
Time stops.
(1975)
