Wait. Rush. Wait. Eat. Wait some more…a split second is an eternity…wait to rush to the finish line…rush to wait…eat some more…eat enough? Are you full? Wait to be empty again.
Wait to fail, wait to succeed…punishment is waiting and waiting is punishment. Public flogging and just-rightness —setting the record straight— the public spectacle of success.
When is waiting enough?
Works on waiting, euphoria and the quest to start all over again. The forum of public obedience, humiliation and the “maybe” of what lies in the in-between…the clock is ticking.
Caterina VERDE’s first show in Atlanta presented by the Wm Turner gallery
