Heidegger would add that ‘being in time’ constitutes our existence. Einstein stated briefly: “time is relative”. You see, nothing is simple here. In a story, moments can be accelerated, squeezed into a point, or stretched to infinity, taking the viewer into another timespace. There are times when, in a good story, we lose count of the seconds, and in a hypnotic abstraction, we lose the very point of reference. Then perhaps it is the narrative that arranges our experience of time? For we saturate every second with an autonarrative – a dream or a memory of a bygone ‘now’. Yet is it possible to recount time without a story? Can it be shown, extracted? For years, scientists have been spinning theories about the chronon – the quantum of time. But our perception does not perceive the quantum, and everything else is transformed into another story anyway…. Well then, where do we stand in relation to time? This year’s OPEN CALL invites you to explore these dilemmas and doubts – whether in the form of abstract visions or out-of-the-box stories. P.S. Good advice from the guys in Waiting for Godot : “That passed the time. It would have passed in any case. Yes, but not so rapidly.” ## practical information Works enrolled to the OPEN CALL may be created for the purposes of the enrollment, although we also accept pre-existing creations from their author’s portfolio. OPEN CALL Kinomural 2025 goes in 2 stages: 1. Selection of works that will be presented in the form of large-scale projections on side walls of the buildings located in one of the districts of Wroclaw. 2.

Works taking part in the OPEN CALL must be delivered to the Organizer by May 31, 2025 to the email address: opencall@kinomural.com, submitted according to the entry form available below (button APPLY NOW).
