About "Cucumber time: The Quiet Summer Period with Little News"

by Elianne van Turennout

About the artwork

Cucumber time is the term used for a specific period in the year, usually during summer, when there is little news to report. This is mainly because politicians, journalists and many other professionals are on holiday. During these quiet summer months, when normal news offerings are scarce, lighter and less important news items are often put forward to fill the silence.

This period of cucumber time offers a moment of reflection and calm for both news consumers and news producers. It is a time when attention can shift to human interest stories, cultural events and other summer activities that might otherwise be overshadowed by more important news.

For many people, cucumber time also represents an opportunity to take a break from the constant flow of news and focus on personal leisure and recreation. It highlights the seasonal nature of news production and the importance of breaks and holidays in our hectic lives.

This quiet period reminds us that not every day has to be filled with big, earth-shattering events. Sometimes it is precisely the simplicity and calm of cucumber time that helps us recharge and appreciate the value of less hectic moments.
