'Selenite Eroded Soccer Ball (set of 3), 2022' is part of the artist latest series 'Future Relics'. The artist has been recreating iconic cultural items from the 20th and 21st centuries, inviting audiences to see these commodities anew. Using his signature technique, he HAS crystallised everything from Walkman cassette players and Sony headphones to Polaroid cameras, Smeg refrigerators and in this case, Soccer Balls - that reflect how our culture might be historicised by generations to come.
''Future Relic began as an experiment and a way to think about how I would make films related to my art practice. I have been making works for many years that replicate objects from our present as if they were uncovered on some future archeological site. These objects create breaks in time and they expand and collapse it by bringing us outside of our current moment."
