LINGERING
2025

This year’s theme, LINGERING, draws inspiration from Byung-Chul Han’s The Scent of Time: A Philosophical Essay on the Art of Lingering. The day invites guests to pause, connect, and experience art as time suspended.
Lingering:
-
A duration, not a pace
-
A vivid interest in holding and staying
-
Being time, not time passing
-
A re-calibration of the chronological impulse
Does an apparently irreversible succession of events come undone in the act of lingering?

Guests will gather at the Old Barn for a Japanese tasting bento prepared by Yusuke Konno and Saya Yaegashi, followed by a guided journey through performances and installations.
