“Tell me how you really feel”
Art Exhibition - 3 woman show
There is a myth about women in their early thirties that creates certain pressure that results in a life-changing decision. What subjects women to constantly think and justify - whatever decision they are or will make at that age - will anchor an unredeemable course of their life. In this myth we are in, we find it best defined by twilight, the in-between of day and night, shortness of the twilight in a day represents the window that embodies the myth that we believe we are experiencing. The title is based on an album by artist Courtney Barnett entitled "Tell me how you really feel" where the singer talks about the unspoken truth towards decisions women have to make that define them from the societal point of view.
This exhibition is a brief expression of intentions to create a visual playlist from our (female artist) myth and how we think and see ourselves within the myth. There are multiple thoughts we, as subjects, go through in rummaging through the future possibilities that we conjure. And like a playlist, thoughts go on as a loop or a shuffle of different unexpected and expected decisions we should make for our future. As artists and authors - we have positioned ourselves in the twilight to fully produce the main course of the objective, which is to explore the random thoughts and reality of living in the twilight and the myth where it comes from.
