We are in time 
We are in time 
We are in time 
We are in time 
We are in time

Each every moment
circling waiting pushing leaving 
starting stopping holding being 
float with a wait for me
take out your breath with me 
and hold it just once in the hand 
by the tip of your end fingers 
and try to make it wait
to make it stop
to make it hold
to put it out
can’t
won’t
and don’t
-

We are on fire 
We are on fire 
We are on fire 
We are on fire 
We are on fire.

Samuel Brzeski’s practice investigates perceptions and understandings of time on biological, social and geologic scales. Through the study and presentation of sites, situations and objects, the work explores existential narratives on ontology and the transient mortality of the human species. Taking both an archaeological and a speculative approach, the work investigates the narratives that are implicit in the objects, materials and resonances that are left behind, and presents possibilities and echoes of a potential future to come. Principally, these ideas concern the inevitable decline of humanity and the placement of human existence on a larger, deeper timescale. 

Samuel Brzeski (b,1988, London) studied Bachelor’s of English Literature at Sheffield University, UK and is currently taking his Master of Fine Art at Bergen Academy of Art and Design, Norway. Samuel has exhibited in London, Venice, Berlin and Bergen and has taken residencies in Italy, Germany and Finland.
