“Postponed Tomorrow speaks first of all about Impasse. About the incapability to make the right decision in a critical moment.
I refer to the occurrence of a standstill, that results, paradoxically, not due to a certain physical or intellectual handicap, but out of a “overfull” of possibles. To comunicate is vital, but within a social context “full of communication” the noise generated by it cancels any effect of the communication. Therefore, to choose a simple message, clear, strong and efficient, becomes a more and more complicated task. To not know what to chose to say, first and fastest, because all “important” things are equally important, to be obliged to choose one single thing to say just so the message can produce effects, creates a sort of “paralysis” equal to non-action. This incapacity of correctly deciding in a matter of emergency is the resulting sum of typical human factors: postponements, doubts, vulnerabilities, various fears, but especially the fear of not being wrong…” (Cătălin Burcea)

“Catalin Burcea is conceptually analyzing the non-action caused by the impossibility of certainty. The impossibility of prediction implies the principle impossibility to distinguish. On the other hand, safety creates its own problems. Burcea raises questions and even debates the accepted societal mechanisms that often make mistakes. Cătălin Burcea’s conceptual approach is permanently “time-specific”. Always connected socio-politically, always attentive to the social reactivity.” (Răzvan Ion)

”Postponed Tomorrow” vorbește în primul rând despre Impas. Despre incapacitatea de a lua cea mai potrivită decizie într-un moment critic. Mă refer la apariția unui blocaj care rezultă, în mod paradoxal, nu din cauza vreunui handicap de ordin fizic sau intelectual ci dintr-un „prea plin” de posibile. A comunica este vital, însă într-un context social „plin de comunicare” zgomotul generat de acesta anulează orice efect al comunicării. Prin urmare, a alege un mesaj simplu, clar, puternic și eficient devine o treabă din ce în ce mai complicată. A nu ști ce să alegi mai întâi și mai repede, să spui pentru că toate lucrurile „importante” sunt la fel de importante, a fi obligat să alegi un singur lucru de zis tocmai ca mesajul să poată produce efecte, creează un fel de „paralizie” egală cu nonacțiunea. Această incapacitate de a decide corect în regim de urgență este rezultatul unui cumul de factori tipic umani: amânări, îndoieli, vulnerabilități, temeri diverse, dar, mai ales, teama de a nu greși…” (Cătălin Burcea)

„Cătălin Burcea analizează conceptual nonacțiunea produsă de imposibilitatea certitudinii. Imposibilitatea predicţiei implică imposibilitatea principială de a distinge.Pe de altă parte, siguranța creează propriile probleme. Burcea ridică semne de întrebare și pune în dezbatere chiar mecanismele societale acceptate care produc adesea erori. Abordarea conceptuală a lui Cătălin Burcea este permanent ”time-specific“. Mereu conectat socio-politic, întotdeauna atent la reactivitatea societală.” (Răzvan Ion)
