​

mortal - no time left - approaching annihilation/death

​

philosophical/religious - outside of time/eternal/timeless

​

anachronistic - against time (ana against chronos time) - belonging to a diferent  time       

​

musical - unrelated to beat or pulse - temporally dissonant - cf out of tune

​

Unlike music, literature and drama, painting does not work with or within linear time. It has spatial boundaries, but it has no beginning, nor end, nor fixed duration.

​

'In what space then do we measure time passing?'
