The anthropomorphic narrative which tells of this power of perception to systemically create and destroy, devises an energetic substance that intrinsically links us to this primordial space, connecting all thought to reality. It is through explorations of light and abstraction formed using cameraless techniques, micro/macro photography and digital manipulation, that I mirror these artificial realities of ‘being’ and perceived ‘oneness’ with the universe. From divine beings to science’s modern alchemy, out of nature’s mystical abstraction, we form patterns and identify symbols all in a bid to understand ourselves. From a primordial void in us all lies the colours and sudden birth of light spoken about since time immemorial. Life and death, potential and being-ness. Did humanity create its own existence?
