In a fast-moving world where events constantly rush by, Killing Time focuses on time as something both personal and real. It marks a sudden break — a moment where movement stops and direction disappears. A trace of something that happened and cannot be reversed. In a time of digital and cultural disconnection, the project insists on the value of the physical and the need to feel the real. The title plays with meaning — are we killing time, or is it killing us? Or are we simply living in a time that feels overwhelming and destructive, where we never pause, reflect, or look closely at what’s happening? Experiences blur together, and we lose depth in the rush toward what comes next. A quote by the Bulgarian lawyer Krassimir Takov — “It wasn’t time that was like that – it was you” — reminds us that the pressure we feel often comes from our own choices. Killing Time invites us to slow down and be present — to question the time we live in and how we shape it.
