ALIVE IN TIME
ALIVE in TIME explores time and timelessness as we experience it in lockdown.
Today we re-experience as Andrew Marr launches our Time and Timelessness symposium. We demonstrated the irreversibility of time through our art performance entitled Eggtime, when we cooked and ate scrambled eggs.
Andrew Marr explores time through his paintings, which we have for sale in aid of the Richard Demarco Archive. Andrew uses the metaphor of the river in his paintings, when water flows at different speeds, just as time does.
The exhibition includes works by artists Andrew Marr particularly admires: Gillian Ayres, John Hoyland, Patrick Heron and Henri Matisse. All are for sale.

“The subject of time is of huge relevance to us right now - as lockdown has taken clock time from most of us, leaving us with an experience of time which is subjective,” says Caroline Wiseman, founder of ALIVE in the UNIVERSE, which staged Time and Timelessness, and is now staging ALIVE in TIME.
Andrew Marr at Time and Timeless in February 2020
Andrew Marr
Just before lockdown, in late February 2020, Time and Timelessness was the subject of a symposium in Aldeburgh. Andrew Marr, A C Grayling, Richard Demarco, Blake Morrison, David Berman and other big thinkers came to the seaside town of Aldeburgh to explore this double enigma through philosophy, physics, theology as well as the arts – visual, music, poetry, literature, theatre and film. And the Einstein medallist Roger Penrose explained his new theory of cycles of time, CCC, to Caroline Wiseman.
