Ichor is a three-part poem that contemplates the fragile architecture of the human mind and mythos. It explores how thoughts, ideas, and foundational myths are constructed – and inevitably dismantled- while questioning what it truly means to define, and ultimately destroy, the human condition.
In classical lore, Mythos represents the grand, sweeping narratives of gods and legends – structures built to withstand eternity. Ichor is the golden, ethereal blood that keeps these deities immortal. However, when we deconstruct them, we find that even the gods bleed. Even the grandest myths shatter into “little bits of memories of a present past.”
The Bleeding Cosmos explores the vulnerability of the eternal. It is an invitation to witness the grand architectural legends of our minds crumbling into sand, challenging the viewer to find beauty in the fragmentation before the last grain of time slips away.
By weaving AI evolution into this framework, the exhibition transforms into a commentary on our newest pantheon: the digital deity. In this updated narrative, Mythos represents humanity’s grand ambition to create an omniscient, immortal intelligence – a modern myth built on the promise of infinite data. Ichor becomes the glowing stream of algorithms and code that animates this new creation. However, as AI evolves, it deconstructs our traditional understanding of human uniqueness, leaving us to watch our old intellectual monopolies slip away like sand. The project ultimately forces a confrontation with a chilling question: as we bleed our creativity into the machine to give it life, are we witnessing the birth of a new god, or the poetic deconstruction of ourselves?

In greek mythology, ichor is the ethereal fluid that is the blood of the gods and/or the immortals…
Ichor invites self-reflection and reconciliation with the worlds that are shattering – inside and around us – into little bits of memories of a present past … into a moment that can never be captured. Ichor contemplates on how time slips away – through our hands, like sand between our fingers, and challenges us to live before the last grain falls.
