Where Holding Ends, Another State Begins

Installation view

Exploring the intersection of material vulnerability and existential uncertainty, this installation

treats water as an ontological ground that both animates life and drives its eventual dissolution.

The work unfolds as a site of durational dissolution, examining speculative precarity as a

foundational condition of existence. By orchestrating a live encounter between fluid, raw

materials, the installation attends to the ontological precarity shared by all things: the reality that

coherence is never intrinsic, but always contingent upon relations and supports that exceed

one’s own control. The clay serves as a repository for embodiment, presence, and touch,

shaped directly from the negative spaces of previous works and past physical states. The

installation stages the active conditions of loss, the slow, structural erosion that precedes

rupture and continues long after it, tracking the generative thresholds that open incrementally as

one state of matter yields to another.
