scroll

A man's hand motions back and forth, directing the flow of traffic

Drawing the curtain back like a horizontal scroll, revealing the frame of the window

A window shade unveils the world as it rolls up towards the ceiling

A hand turning the dial slides the tuning indicator forward and back

Lenses rotate back and forth, blurring and sharpening the field of view

Collective movement turns the air into a scroll of       ever-changing patterns and forms

Fingers drag around a circular scroll

A slot machine's multiple scrolls spin upwards

The dealer's hands echo the motion of scrolling on a phone

In the digital age, the concept of 'scrolling' has become an integral part of our daily lives, often dictating our attention, absorbing our time, or directing the order of information we receive.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       It It has become synonymous with non-attention and mindlessness in our fast-paced, screen-dominated world. This exhibit explores scrolling outside of the digital realm, highlighting a collection of physical moments, gestures, and actions that embody scrolling in its many forms. This exhibit is a gallery of scrolling - recognizing scrolling as a form of navigation, a tool to reveal, a multi-directional way of seeing and a mechanism for surprise.

Sometimes all we can do is try to stop the endless scroll
