My artist statement is the physical analogy of Stephen Hawking’s black hole hypothesis: the internal particles of the material composing objects that fall into a black hole collapse completely, lose their substance, change their properties.

My artist statement is the physical analogy of Stephen Hawking’s black hole hypothesis: the internal particles of the material composing objects that fall into a black hole collapse completely, lose their substance, change their properties. That is, the paradoxical situation that arises is the following; if one would get into such a gravitational tunnel, one’s body would still remain a coherent whole even though its cells and atoms would disintegrate in the abovementioned way. Therefore, at the moment of annihilation, the body still remains formally self-identical. In this gravitational tunnel, I examine the tunnel itself as an artist and my own materiality as a tissue structure in it, as it changes and as everything that I have named dies in it
