DeepTime Collective is a collaboration between artists Amanda Leigh Evans and Tia Kramer that unearths how we understand ourselves within the interdependent constructs of time, place, community and landscape. Our work has been synergistically developed in partnership with artists, performers, geologists, young people, mathematicians, writers, farmers, software architects, mothers, immigrants and educators. The concept of deep time refers to many methods of perceiving or embodying time, including geologic time, the unusual freedom within unawareness of time, and visualizing one’s place within the lineage of ancestors and descendants. We are interested in how the elastic threads of time connect us with ancient, present, and future ways of being. We seek moments of exchange that alter our knowing of time, place and each other.
