A Moment in time

From the Dutch still life paintings of the Golden Age to Impressionism and Futurism, artists have continually explored the tension between the moment and the eternal in various forms. Withering flowers, a passing meteor, and vulnerable lives—these all seem to hint at the illusion of eternity and the preciousness of a moment. Whether to view through the lens of idealism or materialism, perception and reality are in constant flux. Yet painting allows the moment to endure, reaffirming our belief in the beauty of art itself.

Painting is the art of the moment. In A Moment In Time, the four artists use their own unique artistic languages and perspectives to capture their moments—this could be what they saw in a moment, what they felt in or moment, or what they thought in a moment. They invite viewers to share these moments with them—or perhaps, for a moment, to become them.
