Meteors

The word meteor conjures images of global catastrophe on the order of world-ending extinction events. But in fact, meteorologists use the term to apply to a wide array of natural phenomena—clouds, fog, rainbows, halos, glories, smoke, and smog. Suspensions of water, light, and dust.

 In rejecting the conceit of meteors as singular agents of calamity, this work seeks to recognize everyday meteors, so omnipresent we mostly don't notice. Above us, massive accumulations of water vapor play out in endless spectacle, terrifyingly majestic and completely ephemeral, perpetually coming into being and breaking apart as ordinary miracles of impermanence so commonplace— just there, in the sky—we all too frequently forget to look up.
