Flow in the zone, a global perspective
Presented artists: Jose' Polet-France, Policarpo Riberio-
Brazil, Tonietta Walters-USA
Flow - a smooth uninterrupted movement or progress
Zone - a temporary state of heightened concentration
that enables peak performance
'Flow' unlike the Merriam-Webster definition above is a
now widely referenced as a concept proposed by Mihaly
Csikszentmihalyi: a mental state of operation in which
the person is fully immersed in what he or she is doing,
characterized by a feeling of energized focus, full
involvement, and success in the process of the activity.
The Zone usually refers to athletes. The terms seem
interchangeable and most artists are intimately familiar
with this state. This annual exhibition series will give
artists from around the world a chance to freely interpret
both concepts using their usual form of expression and
give their perspective on this fundamental part of the
creative process.
