THE CHRONOTOPES

Platform Arts, Belfast, 3 August - 9 September 2017

β€œThe collapse of nonlinearity followed the Babel Event, and Language imposed its own linear ordering. Subjugating the host for reproduction and propagation, Language seeks further modes and realities to occupy. Its iterative condition invades and flows in multiple strata, to parasitically inscribe distinct spatial and temporal aesthetics.”

The Chronotopes are devices and landscape structures deployed to disturb linearity. Antagonising at the scales of the Anthropocene where the human is implicated as a geological agent, these technical apparatus manifest affective alignments at a planetary resolution.  The Chronotopes adopt the status of the monument, a category of spatial and temporal materialism with a linguistic comportment, to deploy a recalibration of space-time aesthetics. Only through nonlinear machinations is the sublime condition of Language comprehended in its authentic form, yet witnessed to have infected a materialism under geo-magnification.
