The Big Rip Model, 2020
10 page colour publication
100 000 years from now, it is predicted that the motion of the stars across our celestial sphere will render all of our constellations unrecognizable. As the universe continues to expand far beyond this time scale, the ‘big rip model’ predicts that eventually the cosmos will be progressively torn apart.
These changes in time and scale are not only less knowable than we imagined, they are even more unimaginable than we can fathom. Thinking about the human time scale and the much, much larger time scales we are a part of, if the universe is to end in a big rip, how could we pick up the pieces and put it all back together again. What would we keep, change and alter if there was a chance of a do over? Ourselves and our universe, bound by an inexorable fate.
