As We Vanish
Original works by Caitlin McCormack and Jason Chen
A being's inevitable passage into oblivion is challenged by remnants of its existence, which continue to evolve in its absence.
As we vanish,
we are obliged to silently observe the echoes left in our wake.
In this exhibition, two artists examine the gradual ascent and subsequent decline endured by all organisms, and reflect upon the matter generated by this endless, delicate cycle. Imbued with elements of memory, repetition, and decay, these works evoke a sense of stillness that mingles with the subtle energies of entropy.
