Time Together
In the case of Time Together, the narrative begins when a young woman misses her stop on the train and arrives at Vilnius station. A woman who watches her from the train offers a lift, which starts a disconcerting relationship between them, hovering between cult entrapment, emergence of a political cell, a predatory sexual drive or indeed, friendship.
Each day the episode is introduced by a physicist explaining phenomena related to our Sun and its electromagnetic radiation reaching Earth. His announcements to camera bring the audience into the constellation of levels of representation that Time Together joins up. As we plunge into the narrative we become astutely aware of the mechanisms surrounding our characters, their elusive organisation, the Triennial, the performances, the audience, and the universe.
Mark Aerial Waller is an artist based in London. He has produced a significant body of video and event based works, for which he has developed a unique language and methodology. The spectator, art object and its relative position in space and time become a medium for a new modality of viewing. He supplements his practice with The Wayward Canon, a research platform for event-based interventions in cinematic practices, presenting events at Baltic Triennial, Serpentine Gallery and Tate Modern. Exhibitions include Barbican, Kadist Foundation, ICA, Tate Britain and the title work for Superpower: Africa in Science Fiction, Arnolfini 2012. He is represented by Rodeo and films are distributed by LUX.
