NORRA STATION - STREET ART IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
TAKE TOMORROW BACK
It is impossible to take back tomorrow. On the other hand, we - humanity - must begin to adopt a different lifestyle and a new approach to our way of life in order to create a sustainable society. A society where we all lives in the same symbiosis as everything else living on earth. We must adapt to the resources that this planet offers.
We believe that art has an important role here. Through art, we can jointly explore, problematize, concretize and visualize a common image of a society in which we want to live.
We have chosen to use Penrose Stairs as a symbol and question for our project TAKE TOMORROW BACK - because we must understand the present to form the future. We own the future even though we never own it. The optical illusion Penrose Staircase describes a construction that is clearly impossible in reality, with the two-dimensional construction creating paradoxical and distorting perspectives. You can walk both up and down but ultimately you will return to the same level.
So is the future like Penrose's stairs?
Can we talk about the future as an impossible object with perspective that creates a construction that neither leads up nor down?
If so, what do we do with the future?
We do not own the future, or, do we
Can we agree that we all own everyone's future?
Regardless, hope, power and change are needed together - we want to create it. WE WANT TO TAKE TOMORROW BACK.
It requires something extra ordinary from humanity today because there is no later, just now.
Using Penrose's stairs feels relevant because we have to understand the cycle, how everything revolves and repeats itself and that we have to fight HARD for a better world.
