"Contemplating Extinction" is a vibrant yet haunting meditation on time, transformation, and the remnants of a world in flux. Constructed from salvaged National Geographic magazines and books, this collage layers fragments of history, technology, and nature, forming a chaotic yet compelling landscape of past and present. Dinosaurs roam among vintage electronics, lush plant life intertwines with outdated media, and a tattered structure stands as a silent witness to cycles of growth and decay. Mounted on an up-cycled print, this piece speaks to the inevitable passage of time—what we cherish, what we discard, and what remains long after we are gone.
