Abstract

Alter E(c)o is a series of three large-scale sculptures that represent a futuristic, fictional, dystopic landscape. Each individual piece mimics land formations observed in the natural world. The use of synthetic and industrial materials is intended to be a bizarre depiction of telluric matter in millions of years to come. Through size and material, these fictional edifices are meant to allude to the fact that we can be the creators of our existence.
