Nepenthe is a fictional medicine from classical antiquity that was used to dispel suffering. In Homer's Odyssey, it represents relief and comfort; a mythical elixir that makes sorrow fade away.

Can art stretch or slow down our experience of linear, sequential time (Chronos), allowing memories to fade and us to become absorbed in an elusive but meaningful moment (Kairos)?

With this group exhibition, Atelier 21 offers no answer, but rather an interspace of imagination. A place where perception, undergoing and experiencing can themselves become a form of Nepenthe.
