Responding to its unusual location, Mapping Time is a group exhibition featuring new and previous works by local and international artists, all of which are currently studying on the Master of Contemporary Art program at the Estonian Academy of Arts in Tallinn. Hosted in the distinctive setting of The Monk’s Bunk Hostel, located in Tallinn’s Old Town, the exhibition explores themes related to ideas of the home, time, travelling and identity.

“Yet to Be Titled” video works are captured in a symbolic space that acts simultaneously as a stage and reality, where the ideals of the past collide with the hopes of the future. The room, frozen in the aesthetics of the 1960s, is the artist’s grandparents’ bedroom, revealing family expectations and values, which in turn intersect with questions of personal identity. It is both a place of isolation and connection, where personal and collective narratives coexist.
