(May 8 – June 13) “Today-Yesterday’s Future Tense” @ Zilberman Gallery

Zilberman Gallery will host Sunoj D’s exhibition “Today—Yesterday’s Future Tense between Tuesday, 8 May until Wednesday, 13 June. No entrance fee is required.

From the organizer:

Just like the fading echoes of the evening temple bells, the smell of ash on a cold winter morning, the dried ink of unfinished sentences on a page, a storm of a dead leader, the footprints of a refugee on wet soil, the broken wings of a wasp in a forest and a thousand hopes dripping from melted wax in a church, yesterday succinctly washes into the shores of today in a whisper.

With a pinch of courage we can think that the three most powerful things in life are birth, love and death. Love creates, destroys, mutates—the ideological self and the non-ideological nation, yesterday and tomorrow. Today is love, today is war. Today is the blackest black of the soot made by the brightest flame. Today we practice lies, loss and laws of yesterday for tomorrow.

The works stringed together in Today/ Yesterday’s Future Tense is an introspection and a reflection—on the conflict of the self in time, and in negotiating today. Whether it’s a love gone wrong or the wreckage of a nation, whether it’s a lie of a cold corridor of a hospital or the hopes of a parched land—today is a conflict with the past. If today is a conflict, then will tomorrow be so too? And what about dreams—unconquered and lying in the granaries of hope, nostalgia and desire?

Just your average foreign student. Passionate about travelling, gender equality and getting into debates. Deluding herself constantly that she’ll learn Turkish. Trying to make “the adulting thing” work out. Always replying “you know, like the music... jazz” when asked on how to pronounce her name. Her goal in life is to be happy. Her dream is to start a NGO about the unfortunate children that don’t have access to education. Yeah, she dreams big...
