Our universe is expanding faster and faster. Since the Industrial Revolution, society’s pace has been speeding up. Our contemporary lives are filled with the challenges of multi-tasking and the demand for high-speed, immediate responses and interactions with each other and the world. Meditation, yoga, slow food and reconnection with nature are in vogue because they offer a counter-solution: the option to slow down and revolt against the speed at which we are supposed to live. We also find art philosophies and practices that follow this movement- offering works, contemplations and experiences based on slowing down.
This year’s PAO@Steilene invited artists to ease their pace and create works inspired by the act of slowing down and the art of contemplation, in dialogue with the natural landscape of Steilene islands.
We look forward to contemplate art and nature with you!
PAO@Steilene is free! We will provide snacks, but you are welcome to bring along your own picnic and drinks. Make sure you bring plenty of drinking water!
