Billedserie – Marijke van Warmerdam: The sun comes in

Whether it’s the hands of the clock or the hands of a human being, we see time held or displayed for an instant before slipping away. A man holds a bouquet of colourful watches: we see the hands of the watch jump from the face of one watch to another like a renegade trickster, always on the run. This exhibition questions the very nature of our measurements, and Van Warmerdam’s defamiliarising of some of the instruments we use to measure our world leads to a more existential questioning.
