STRATUM
(Information compression and artifacts)
Stratum is the eventuality of time and entropy on a biological system—dense layers of information that form in rock or soil, compressed events telling the story of an era. Born from the aesthetic of a rune, my sculptural practice seeks to understand that all civilizations eventually fall into destruction, and all that remains are the strongest stone objects. I began creating objects out of cement and stone that lay in harmony with their rocky environment, later photographing these objects along with areas of geological collapse, mountainous regions, and desert landscapes where people have carved into stone.
I also document regions where fire has left a layer of ash and draw from a childhood collection of petrified wood and stones. All of this is an effort to make sense of the beauty and incomprehensible amount of time it takes to create large geological formations or precious stones. I aim to draw parallels between the immensity of time and the brevity of human existence. We are merely children on the scale of our surroundings, yet we strive to create everlasting works that are ultimately futile in the face of entropy.
