From the big bang to earth’s dissolution in the near distant future, this is one story of mineral life, geological evolution and recombinant redistribution, and how we hold rocks in our hands and in our bones.   

Remineralization and corollary work unfold a visual folktale from the first breaths of the universe, or the big bang’s original mineralization, through mining and industrial relations with earth’s geology, to landfill aggregates, remineralizations, and future gems. The materials used in their making are also characters in their tale, including copper ink, metallic thread, and metallic and mica pigments.
