Through the dissonance between image and caption, I explore the incongruous relationship between subject and representation as executed through human-made systems for undersatanding reality. Celestial bodies have historically been victims of this clumsiness. Geocentrism, the illusion of dead stars still shining, and the name “shooting star,” which refers to something that is, in fact, not a star at all- these are just a few examples of human-made systems misrepresenting reality on a cosmic scale. This project occupies the space between the concrete and the conceptual. First drawn in charcoal, each image is made of dust- they are tactile; physical. They are then rendered through light, burned into a screen via the ultraviolet spectrum- imperceptible to the human eye- before being printed onto paper once more in ink. They are transformed through the process of representation.
