Borrowing from philosopher Simone Weil’s thoughts on rootedness and the void, this series uses visual metaphors to capture the feeling of being uprooted and the resilience of life on a cosmic scale. Vulnerable yet tenacious, the roots hover and wander through the universe amid their own scattered fragments, which come to form an integral part of the starscape. In the void, we come to terms with the fragility of our existence and begin searching for existential and spiritual meaning. In this liminal space of uprootedness, hostility coincides with serenity and transience with eternity.
