Fast-moving forward in the fantasy of the past.

We have lost our sense of place. Confronted with the illusion of time, deep inside the sensation of always wanting more.

More time, more products, more illusions.

In a system of cycles, we try to find a sense of real in our present. But there is no real, reality is

just a space of illusions that people can agree on, until the next cycle begins.

In this space, we produce.

We produce this space.

In a cycle, where presenting cultural expectation rootlessly attaches us to ourselves, we find

ourselves understanding a logic we cannot feel. We are grounded in a wealth of

unknowns - economized - made known.

The Salamander Devours its Tail Twice brings together twenty-seven artists

figuring out what it means to be human.

Each artist oscillates between self-understanding and cultural expectation. Located somewhere in the middle, they create an extension of themselves, a mirror from which they may better understand their position in the present, relation to the past, and anxieties around the future.
