You Are Exactly Where You Need to Be, Lost is both ceramic object and diagram, tracing a constellation between mineral histories, spiritual interpretation, resource extraction, and technological systems.

Drawing on Venn diagrams and the vesica piscis, the work brings mathematical, spiritual, and scientific ways of understanding the world into conversation. Overlapping geometric structures become frameworks for examining relationships, intersections, and contradictions, while questioning the limits of the systems we use to organize knowledge.

The work is informed by Hito Steyerl's examination of the hidden material and political infrastructures underlying digital technologies. Cobalt crystalline glazes evoke geological formation and industrial transformation, bringing the material processes behind technological systems into the physical object.

Moving between mineral, myth, mathematics, and material transformation, the work considers how different forms of knowledge shape our understanding of the world, and what becomes visible when they are brought into proximity.
