Artist Statement:

In Dark Storm Phials boredomresearch creates a world of fragile, growing forms that have a brief opportunity to release sonic pulses of energy before being destroyed by a mysterious rumbling force in their environment. The delicate forms are related on the level of the computer model to the vulnerabilities that exist in the natural world and exhibit behaviours that are not dissimilar to that of the commercial high street or a financial system. This work addresses the uncomfortable relationship we have as a culture with destructive processes, despite them being essential for growth.
