T WAS ALWAYS ABOUT FOREVER is about the ongoing discourse on the banal universe of static things, of how immortality itself, when turned into the subject of art, becomes framed as something banal. Departing from a generation of exhibitions fascinated with the quick and the dead, IT WAS ALWAYS ABOUT FOREVER grapples with the ongoing struggle against this certain cosmological indifference. The artist push take this on by challenging the traditional concept of "still life" by precisely muting the subjects and yanking them in and out of theor ordinary contexts. As the artist conceals inanimate present objects in the principle that "invisibility is a form of mortality", she likewise brings to life an inventory of images that,ironically, in spite of its reticence, reveal and open up dialogue for further inquiry. Truly, indeed, Absence is presence.
