Open Folio

Split Infinites:
Visualizing the non-visible world of contemporary physics.Harnessing sequencing systems used by physicists in their investigation of the hidden dimensions of string theory and the multiverse these prints are a response to these propositions that talk of a world built up of an infinite number of miniscule, oscillating filaments. The prints explore these as yet unseen territories, employing digital printing systems more commonly used in industrial prototyping, to propose an atlas for this multidimensional world. The prints cite scientific visualisation methods, interweaving computerised prototypes with cartographic references, to explore a repeating and ever mutating reality.
