What is one single moment in the life of a human being compared to the vast expanse of time relating to humanity, the planet or the universe? Is there anything beyond the present moment? Vendula Tomšů and Ian Mikyska explore the boundaries of this eternal and infinite present moment to the backdrop of a captivating soundscape. Using five fascinating handmade books, some large and thick like atlases or Bibles, others tiny in size, they pose the question of how we regard time in relation to the planet, the sun or even our own breathing.
