Betweenness is an approach to transitional states — moments when one condition is giving way to another and perception becomes less certain.
It begins with experiences that resist being held in a fixed form: waking and sleeping, presence and absence, silence and sound, memory and forgetting, what has already happened and what is about to happen.
These moments are often brief. Something changes, but the change itself is difficult to grasp. Betweenness works with this instability, allowing transition to be experienced through atmosphere, duration, space, and sensory attention.
Rather than illustrating a state of transition, the practice creates conditions in which it can be encountered.
The Approach
Minimal intervention — Using subtle gestures and spatial shifts to make changes in perception possible. working with the moment when something is changing, but has not yet become something else.
Threshold states — Working with moments when familiar distinctions begin to shift.
Duration — Allowing waiting, repetition, and gradual change to shape the experience of a work.
Sensory attention — Working through movement, atmosphere, sound, light, material, and bodily presence.
Memory and forgetting — Exploring what remains, disappears, or changes as an experience passes.
