Passage du temps – 2 – Adar 2
Over the blank page bearing the waves of my indecisiveness, my stylet remaine hanging a longtime .
Yet my hand knows its way, several time already, it draw those moments of life, stamped the paper in tiny holes. As many holes as the days in the represented lives, as many holes as the minutes in the depicted months. Yet my mind knows a scheme preexiste my intention, and will be recorded no matter what.
What I do not know is when time begins.
Because I am preparing an exhibition about the nest, the space of the inert and the living. Because this year is embolismic, we already talked about it Yama 9 : Renewal, a supernumerary month, Adar 2, slots into the 12 other month of the Jewish calendar. Because it units the lunar months with the solar years. Because it is said that Adar 2 carries an unknown, to be revealed in the deliverance to follow, and for that it is a pregnant month. Because every thing is symbolic.
For these, I feel that Adar 2 will be the keystone of the story I have to tell, for it represents the frontier between what his carried and what is brought to the world.
I need to know when time begins, to be able, myself, to start.
