We are finite creatures grasping for expansion and seeking to understand the origins of the universe. Lost in our dreams and fears of the unknown, we forget to look inward. We become too focused on the external world, neglecting our inner space.
In the Finite, Infinitely explores becoming, inner reflection, and the reimagining of existence. Inspired by the speculative theory of humanity's evolution through black holes and "inner space" (the Transcension Hypothesis) and Michael Crichton’s book Sphere, this project interprets inner space as our psyche and reflects our capacity to reimagine our identity, our origins, and our end. Seemingly opposing forces, creation and destruction, life and death, coalesce into a still yet active moment.
I imagine how the universe unfolds and crystallizes into matter, how corporeal forms become vessels and conduits for cosmic energy, for life. These constructed figures embody transformation through cycles and repetition, existing in constant flux between being and non-being. There is an exchange of silence and energy that communicates both the painful embrace of the cosmic void and the healing nature of the imagination.
Underlying this work is the philosophical principle of immanence, where there is no separation between object and subject, space, matter, and time. From the black void of cosmic space, new life emerges. Here, the figure becomes a conduit through which unseen forces dance, entwine, and reverberate. Cycles begin, cycles end, cycles repeat.
