Transmutations of a Conscious Hyperobject
I've been fascinated with the concept of a hyperobject ever since reading about the term by an artist looking to describe parts of reality that are too inconceivable for humans to wrap their heads around; focusing at first on climate change and why we've done so little to stop it for so long.
This photo story was quite the journey — probably my favorite thus far.
Produced as brand art for the August.Style brand.
