On Dots, Lines and Circles is an exploration into the terms repetition, circulation and liminality, both in time-based art and artistic practices, and in the experiences of contemporary and digital time. The thesis mentions works by Richard Long, Anne-Theresa de Keersmaeker and Francis Alÿs, artists who use their body in order to make a work visible, and who create works in a space of ones own, which is often created through the use of repetitive and circulating gestures.
The thesis questions and proposes ways on how these works can help us structure —or understand, feel, embody— our current time better, focussing on embodied ways of experiencing a work of art, but also on forms of meditations and slowing down.
