HOLDING UP THE SKY

Patterns of the sky as maps of our fragile economic networks

Raw silk paper, cyanotype, dimensions variable, 2024

Holding Up the Sky presents twenty-eight raw silk paper structures resembling kites, printed with cyanotype skies and arranged in a repeating pattern inspired by creation myths of “fall from the sky.”

 

The installation parallels the human drive for freedom with the fragility of environmental systems. Its interconnected layout mirrors economic networks—where each node depends on others—and suggests that when one link weakens, both natural and human systems risk collapse.
