Wonders

A Wildfire Is Stronger than You” 2023, Oil on Canvas, 28 x 22in

Wonders is a series based on the concept of Hyperobjects. A concept introduced by philosopher Timothy Morton to describe objects beyond our ordinary human experience and understanding. These objects are large in scale and long in duration, and they profoundly impact the world and our lives. Examples of hyperobjects include global warming, plastic, and globalization. Hyperobjects are difficult to grasp or comprehend because of their size and complexity, and they challenge our conventional ways of thinking and our relationship with the world. They force us to rethink our understanding of time and space and raise questions about our responsibility and agency in addressing their challenges.
