Influenced by seminal works such as Charles and Ray Eames' film "Powers of Ten" and Katherine Roucoux's book "Heaven and Earth," my artistic journey embarked upon a profound exploration of scale and the interconnectedness of the microcosmic and macrocosmic realms. These encounters with the infinitesimal and the astronomical sparked a fascination with the expansiveness of existence that resonated deeply within me.

In 2012, as I contemplated concepts for an upcoming exhibition, I immersed myself in the intricate act of drawing highly detailed patterns of organic shapes. The emergence of three expansive pages transpired, each delineating a multitude of minute realms. It was a revelatory moment when I realized the exhibition would be an odyssey through invented worlds within a universe of my own creation, mirroring the thematic structure of the Eames' groundbreaking film.

The foundational elements of my constructed universe are a melange of pinwhickles, cells, ropes, branches, crystals, terrazzo, lily pads, cocoon eyeballs, feathers, and flotsam – shapes both tangible and fantastical, inspired by a myriad of forms, textures, movements, colors, and patterns.

Comprising ten distinct drawings, each serving as an autonomous piece of art while collectively forming a cohesive whole, the series embodies a cyclical narrative akin to a circular slide show. Within each image, three layers coexist, offering viewers varying degrees of magnification, symbolizing shifts in perspective as one traverses through the universe. The scale transitions from 1:1 to 1:500 and 1:1000, inviting observers to embark on a journey of discovery and contemplation.

The series is complemented by corresponding letterpress prints meticulously crafted by Smokeproof Press, further enriching the experience and materializing the intricate components of this captivating universe.

All works within this series were conceived and executed in 2012, marking a pivotal moment in my artistic exploration of the cosmos and the boundless possibilities it encompasses.
