The incessant cadence of our everyday gives way to a different, slower pace. Curated by Anna May Kirk and Tai Mitsuji, this group exhibition grapples with the idea of radical slowness and what it means to break with the whirring pace of the present and the unabating velocity of our time: an ocean of digital water endlessly laps around the base of a stone; an alarm clock is caught in the half-seconds that follow midnight; two galaxies slowly hurtle towards one another destined to meet in four billion years.
