Twilight is an intermediate state, a time of environmental, aesthetic, mental, and political transition. Between darkness and light, twilight becomes a space of suspension of the artistic action in the poetic state, in which ideas materialize and images emerge. It requires and allows surrender to delay and inhibition on the way to understanding and categorization.
It is the time in which the distinction between the artistic, the real, and the functional blurs or is no longer relevant. A space of summoning, and of opportunity for performance.
