Time Assemblage

For 14 days I tied 2000 lengths of fishing line between two pillars. This was undertaken for the duration of the exhibition as a performance. The distance between the two pillars is 4m 85cm (left pillar with 44cm depth 44cm, right pillar width 43cm depth 46cm). I worked from the bottom to the top; I tied from the left pillar to the right pillar and from the right to the left and so on. I timed myself everyday, clocking in and out, working a total 84 hours and 20 minutes. The average time of tying one fishing line was 2 minutes and 32 seconds. Every 10 lines are tied together, with bunches of 100 tied with yellow line, 1000th with purple. The daily completed amount is marked with black line.
