how to turn the earth inside out (2023—) explores the dual role of minerals, particulalry sand's various forms, in creating our digital and physical realities. A series of UV prints on Silicon Wafers depict modernist architectural works of concrete and glass -- collapsing the image and medium of silica. In a video, three stories focus on how silica is the substrate onto which we project our ideas of progress and desire. Rock and digital life are wrapped up in each other at sites of semiconductors, land reclamation, and geological clocks.
