Aether

In Greek mythology, Aether was the personification of the upper sky, an embodiment of the air that the gods breathed. Later Aether was thought to be the substance that allowed light waves to travel through empty space. Today Aether is used to describe that which is difficult to see or hold. In my series “Aether” I use photography to depict imagined other worlds based on our explorations and current understandings of distant space. Creating such environments encourages me to think about the past and future of our own environment. I hope that these created worlds allow others to imagine both, that which is difficult to see and challenging to understand.
