Matthew Willie Garcia | Enter the Void

Enter the Void is a series of works that investigates the unknown, both in the cosmos and within the self. Garcia’s work will transform the gallery into a site of exploration and discovery, inviting viewers to reorient their sense of existence in relation to all of time, approximately 13.8 billion years. 

The core of Garcia’s artistic practice is to transform our perception of existence and recontextualize our notions of space and time. Their work encourages introspection and asks the viewer to consider the mysteries of the universe that might not have straightforward answers, simultaneously redefining and reorienting our understanding of space, exploration, and one’s place in the vastness of the universe. Ultimately, by combining the realms of science and art, Enter the Void strives to challenge our understanding of the universe, foster curiosity, and create moments for contemplation and wonder.
