Today, many people are steeped in a constant flow of information circulated by a variety of media.
Whether online or off, the scrolling content transfers from person to person, moving from screen to
memory and back. The message streams from all angles. An inundation of the virtual motivates
consumption in the material world. The digital realm feels inescapable to the extent that closing or turning
off our devices does not completely shield us from the constant flow. We are enveloped in distraction
seeking to find interiority.

Ctrl [Alt] Self refers to each individual's search for a place that rests between interiority and exteriority.
This exhibition features an interwoven dialogue between three female artists: Brittany M. Watkins, Lucia
Riffel, and Elise Thompson. Installation, painting, and video place the audience on a subliminal plane
where separate parcels of time and space depict facets of human interaction with the feed.

The Eternal Present
A solo exhibition by Lucia Riffel
Curated by Dashboard

Tempus Projects April 22 - May 27, 2022

Have you ever scrolled so far you found yourself?

A waking dream amidst the buzz of the everyday. Anxieties draining from the tip of your scrolling finger. Beyond sight, and into the realm of feeling. Alone, held, in the solace of your own being. Present.
​

The Eternal Present poses the concept that dissociation through technology can provide a space for rest, reconnection, and processing. Enter the internal dimension where time and space become elastic. Quiet cosmic movements of the mundane hang thick in the air, slowly cycling into oblivion. Monotony mingles with the ethereal. Colors melt, portals open, and waves crash along illusory shores. The moment stretches, and pause sets in.
