Exhibition Label: "Time/Frame," Jun-2008, Robert Fucci, Shuyun Ho, Lauren Kernes, Lara Kuykendall, Ellen C. Raimond, and Stephanie Teasley Part of a series of linear experiments in which Steir charts her imaginative and intellectual processes, this work is more about the journey than the destination. The composition of Time Line in Time is ordered by a grid and resembles a graph filled with information. Yet, this graph does not record anything precise. After dissecting the properties of a timeline, both graphically and by mapping letters, Steir’s end result is, like our experience of the progression of time, a complicated web of paths that meander, dodge, and swerve.
