Momentary is a brief and temporary rest, a time to be within the details of each video vignette. These are the slow and gradual details of intimacy and identity, of beauty in the banality of movement, of the delicate details of our pores and porousness. It is an invitation to slowness, to near stillness in movement, into a shift that invites a pause, an intermission, a breath.
Each video in this grouping asks the world to slow down, to see through a different lens, and at times, to separate vision and think beyond the body, beyond time and space, and into a world of slowness, a world of transition, a world within nuance.
This video exhibition is composed of six artists that live and work in Dallas, Texas.
Featured artists: Kelsey Baker, Jennifer Wester, Jeremy Biggers, Tramaine Townsend, Hector Ramirez, Melanie Clemmons
