The Past is the Present is the Future

For non-Western cultures time is not linear but rather a spiral or a cycle, in the present tense we become the embodiment of both our ancestral histories and our projected futures.

Selina Ershadi & Azita Chegini, still from Amator, 2019

This exhibition ran from 19 February 2020 to 9 May 2021


Curated by Talia Smith

For non-Western cultures time is not linear but rather a spiral or a cycle, in the present tense we become the embodiment of both our ancestral histories and our projected futures. This group exhibition brings together photographic and moving image practices to explore the way in which time is ever present and how it is woven throughout our connections to culture, people and place.
