September 8 - October 28, 2023
From UTSA:
“Alicia Eggert’s exhibition Monumentous includes text-based visual artworks, neon signs, paintings, sculptures, interactive installations, photographs, and video art that embrace the power and poetry of language. In work like “We Observe the Universe From Within It,” Eggert puts into words what many of us often forget: that we are always active agents in even the smallest endeavors in our everyday busy lives. Eggert explains, “If Time is a construct, my goal is to determine exactly how it’s constructed and how our perception of Time is shaped by personal, cultural, and geographical factors. I derive my inspiration from reading about Time as it’s defined by physics and philosophy, but I focus on the words and phrases we use in our everyday language — words like “now” and “then” — as points of entry into more complex ideas.”
