FROM THE STUDIO

This is What Time Looks Like was a project by Riepenhoff in collaboration with her husband, Jon Behar, developed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since March 23, 2020, when stay-at-home orders first went into effect in the artists’ home state of Washington, Riepenhoff and Behar have produced one new cyanotype daily, at the exact same location over 24 hours — a continuous record of the passage of time over the past 3 years. The artist concluded on May 11, 2023, when the Federal Public Health Emergency is set to expire. At that point, there will be over 1,100 elements to the work. The work draws its title from a six-word poem by the filmmaker Sylvia Sichel, published in the New York Times.
