To escape your own scale is to teeter on nausea— how many infinities hide in a single frozen breath?
The Violence of Scale: Where Thumbprints Warp the Cosmic Lattice. Here I ask what it means for seen and unseen worlds to collide without respect for limits—when the boundary between a mitochondrion and a galaxy cluster collapses in a single, precision-sharp moment. I wanted to show gravitational force not as background, but as the dominant sculptor, bending salt crystals and iron latticework into impossible alliances with cosmic filaments and quantum foam. This image investigates the vertigo induced when every scale is rendered equally, erasing any comfort we might have in being a particular size or substance.
