Myths of Creation - CE221112.1557 Artwork

Each work in the Myths of Creation series is a record of a unique event, an instant of time, forever frozen. The series celebrates the wondrous, almost magical cosmological discoveries resulting from images captured by NASA’s Hubble Telescope and their implications on human civilization and our deep desire for storytelling and mythmaking. Mythology in human culture often serves to help us define our place in the world; the exponential growth of our cosmic explorations and discoveries offers ground for a new mythology for the modern world. Hubble brought us stunning images that are in fact records of the chronology of our universe, each of some ancient, cataclysmic event such as supernovae, which, despite having occurred eons ago, still possess impact and immediacy. Wanting to capture that feeling I developed a unique, quasi-random process in which each work is made by exploding various materials onto a prepared surface. The resulting explosion becomes the work—each piece is a record of the very instant of its creation. The titles reflect this as they bare the date and time of the event. The works are fixed in cast resin, which adds a stunning visual dimension, and enhances the sense of each work a as frozen moment in time, a record of a specific and spectacular event.
