Between 40 people, you can reach everything, hand each other brushes and paper, show colors and pigments, compositions, figures and all kinds of tips, tricks and tricks in art. In art, time becomes space. We can open that space, both as practitioners and interpreters, we can turn wherever we want, initiate collaborations with the living and the dead and participate in the figurative language that plays out in so many different ways between people. High and low. Big and small. In time and out of time. In all its different ways, art can tell us something about what it is to be human. Not least untimely.
