My work operates at the intersection of the digital age and deep time, aiming to re-contextualize our relationship with technology and Artificial Intelligence. We exist in a state of accelerating obsolescence where a breakthrough AI model is superseded in days and the "cutting-edge" device is outdated in months. The "now" is buried almost instantly.

This volatility extends to our culture itself. Trends decay into "cringe," digital messages are buried in noise, and a live stream from earlier today is already old news. As AI erodes our ability to discern reality, the line between documentation and fabrication blurs. We communicate through hyper-contextual memes—dense layers of unwritten meaning destined to be lost because so little of it ever leaves the digital realm to enter the physical world.

I counter this ephemerality through speculative archaeology. By "calcifying" pixels into geological forms, I strip these objects of their function and grant them permanence. My work invites a reflection on what a future civilization will understand about our complex, anxious culture when they sift through the dirt and rubble of the Age of AI thousands of years in the future.
