Into the Void

With bones, brass, and the ghost of melody, Into the Void draws viewers into a spiraling meditation on fragility, knowledge, and decay. A map of meaning unravels—indexing what once mattered, now echoing into stillness.

In Into the Void, anatomical fragments and mechanical spirals float over a backdrop of musical notation and indexed knowledge. Vertebrae and small bones spill from a lidded tin, cascading across a vintage page labeled "Index to the Tables"—a haunting convergence of order and entropy. A large, concentric mainspring dominates the upper right, its coils evoking both time and collapse. Beneath it all, the silent score of music left unplayed reinforces the stillness that lingers after movement, knowledge, or life has ceased. This piece explores the paradox of structure: how tightly wound systems eventually fall apart.
