Covid Time

Spatial Performance: This performance is another extension of my previous performance of a durational and temporal performance. Both performances have a relation to time. In some sense, the spatial performance is called COVID time. In spatial performance, the performer keeps moving in circular form. There are two clocks which are symbols for the worldly clock and the COVID clock. In the COVID clock, there is only a seconds pointer. Therefore, time is obscure. In the right-hand worldly clock and in the left hand COVID clock. The performer is making constantly for certain in circular form and the pedestal is a reference point for the centre. The circle represents no end and beginning. In some sense, a pandemic seems like an uncertain and strange time. Nobody knows when COVID ends. Therefore, the COVID clock and circular movements are telling about uncertainty. This spatial performance is about obscure time.
