MK2 Art Space presents ”False´s” from Denmark-based artist Julia Ekström. Julia’s work explores the role that memory plays in how we perceive reality. The main attraction is a video installation, filmed on location in the gallery, that examines our perception of time.
One of the main works of this exhibition, ‘Time’ is a video, filmed in the MK2 Art Space, in between one exhibition is taken down and another one is installed. ‘Time’ slowly working its ways through the gallery´s spaces. It tries to smudge the two spaces into an action that is happening at the same duration of time. ‘Time’ is an extension to thoughts on the real and the false. In a non linier historical view, time has the possibility to give multiple life stem from the same life. There is no past, no present and no future. ‘Time’ is inspired by ideologies on time from the Wheeler-DeWitt equation:
”Time seems to live in what physicists have dubbed "superspace," a sort of mathematical ensemble of all possible universes, ones that live only five minutes before collapsing into black holes and ones full of red stars that live forever, ones full of life and ones that are empty deserts, ones in which the constants of nature and perhaps even the number of dimensions are different from our own.” - Wheeler-DeWitt
