The phrase 'how much longer ' refers to a state in between. It implies an unmeasured distance before re aching the end\, a sentiment akin to endurance. HOW MUCH LONGER moves from a demarcation of the time ‘in between’ to consider the body as a site of e ndurance. The works presented here are viewed as pieces about duration vis- à-vis corporeal time. In considering subjects such as love and loss\, week- long viral infections\, sex acts\, and the interconnectedness of art and la bour\, these works suggest endurance is enmeshed in the materiality of time .
These artists incorporate an awareness of endurance\, time\, labour and even boredom as a factor in the creation of art. Whether through drawi ng\, film\, sculpture or installation work\, the pieces in HOW MUCH LONGER refer to the anxiety embroiled in the creation process as manifest through corporeal time. Time spent thinking\, living\, creating\, and so on. These five artists have taken seemingly ordinary experiences of passing time\, li ving life\, and made them extraordinary. Though produced with conceptually rigorous and minimalist strategies\, these works were chosen because they r epresent intimate moments in these artists’ lives which may include autobio graphical or narrative qualities\, often presented in the form of giving th emselves over to their audience in a metaphorical or literal sense.
