| On the 29th of March at 6 pm an exhibition 'Some Ways to Know Spring Has Sprung' by the resident of NAC Ai Sugiura (JP) opened at the Si:said gallery (Darzu str. 18, Klaipeda). |
| The exhibition focuses on time changes and the waiting moment as such. According to the artist, 'People may especially feel seasonal change in spring, which could be described as if one has been waiting for spring rather than feeling that spring has come.' The action of waiting often occurs in our everyday life. Through the observation of everyday life Ai attempted to re-recognize the time and things that are taken over from the elements included in the word "wait". The accumulated things would remain as visible 'border: traces' or become something of invisible and are inherited. Ai Sugiura collects such fragmentary images from everyday scenes and would visually and tactilely capture the 'border: traces' of what is now visible and what is over it. The exhibition runs until the 26th of April. The project is supported by Arts Council Tokyo and VAA Nida Art Colony. |
