Pass the Time of Day

10/06/2005

Castlefield Gallery presents ‘Pass the Time of Day’, an exhibition curated by artist Paul Rooney, which explores the theme of the estrangement of everyday life through the use of music.

The selected works, which include existing and newly commissioned pieces, have an active involvement with the emotional effects of music, mirroring our fluid and subjective experience of the everyday. The works explore the potential within day-to-day existence for creativity and resistance to constraint, and they often deal with the theme of ‘wasted time’, or time loosely and freely spent, as an act of resistance.
