Composite Core

The sculpture series comPoSiTe CoRe draws on the similarity between human associative thinking and the way artificial intelligence combines disparate elements to imagine potential new forms. comPoSiTe CoRe emerges from the accidental convergence, during online research, of two distinct yet related images whose connection is not immediately apparent. The fusion of an organic and an inorganic element generates new hybrid forms. These emergent structures offer speculative glimpses into what future landscapes might look like.

Modeled forms, generated through the reformulation of found visual materials, produce further speculative constructions. For example, the juxtaposition of a multihead weigher with an ovipositor creates a new hybrid form; the combination of the Byford Dolphin oil platform with a spermatophore, or the pairing of asteroid mining with Caenorhabditis elegans, gives rise to other hybrid entities. In these sculptures, reminiscent of dioramas, the inherent narratives embedded in each patterned event are transmitted into potential future stories and images.
