Hayground Students Mark Time With Artist Alice Hope In 'Aeon' On View At Kathryn Markel Gallery

Beginning in September 2018, Hayground School students in Bridgehampton worked alongside artist-in-residence Alice Hope to collectively create a cumulative sculpture that marks time longitudinally over the year in a succession of 24 Fridays.

Their artistic collaboration culminates in a public viewing of “Aeon,” which will be on view at the Kathryn Markel Gallery in Bridgehampton on Saturday and Sunday, May 4 and 5. An opening reception will take place at the gallery (2418 Montauk Highway) from 6 to 8 p.m. on Saturday.

Each hour the students worked with Ms. Hope was an experiential happening that, over the months, aggregated into a 24-hour period. In this “day,” the group assembled the work with the goal of turning intangible and indefinite time into something tangible.
