The Fractal Universe look was charged inside a particle accelerator and cryogenically preserved days before the show. This transformed the dress into a metastable reservoir of energy, containing billions of trapped electrons that generate an intense electric field held within its structure. In the nights leading up to the show, the dress began to decharge, branching flashes of lightning spreaded across its surface as the lightning etched microscopic hollow channels through its three-dimensional structure. The fine detailing belonged not to the hand of the maker, but to lightning, exploring the thresholds between body, matter and energy. The lightning that autonomously finished the dress are temporary columns of plasma - the same state of matter found in lightning, stars, nebulae, the solar wind, and much of the visible universe. ‘Around us, and within us, vast dimensions of reality remain undiscovered. From lightning to the charged environments of particle accelerators, this collection gives form to forces that rarely reveal themselves. I do not seek to explain them; instead, they heighten our awareness of the unknown, reminding us of the mysteries that lie within this multiverse.’
