About

Axion Seed explores the moment when a central form becomes aware of itself through its relationship to the space around it, borrowing its name from a hypothesized presence not yet observed.

Anchored by a central, rotatable cylinder that radiates light into a woven lattice of intersecting laser paths, the installation immerses visitors in a constellation of shifting paths and reflections.

Moving within it, they experience a quiet awakening as they become both witness and participant in the geometry around them.
