Radix arises from immersion into the Depth Axis—Chaos—the symbol of grounding and the latent force that breathes and vibrates in the deep. The piece is an inquiry into that psychic energy which, anchored in the lowest strata of the psychic underground, resists the geometry of form and nourishes life from the shadow, giving rise to Reactive Dominance. Inspired by the primordial narrative of the Unconscious—evoking a lightless density and instinctive activation—the work examines how the inevitability of Chaos becomes the fundamental catalyst for the emergence of consciousness.
Through the piece, this primary impulse becomes a conceptual manifestation of the mind’s architecture, shaping the way the being emerges from its own dark matter. Radix stands as the manifesto of this vector, inviting introspection into the chaotic foundation that defines the becoming of the Self.
Chaos. The abysmal pulse; the latent, unmanifest force that breathes in the depths—the vital anchor embedded in the psychic sediment. It is the energy that refuses the light, erupting to establish the very foundation of existence. The weight of the depth vector manifests as reactive dominance: a pattern of consciousness in which response arises from the deepest, most instinctive and unconscious layers, acting as reaction rather than volitional intent. It is a profound link to the primordial sediment, a testimony to an instinctive force that defines potential and nourishes reality from the shadows, like the hidden root sustaining the organism’s vital continuity.
Radix delves into the foundational power of the depth axis, exploring identity through fear and pure instinct. The piece integrates the dark narrative emerging from the artist’s memory as a dynamic component. A quantum processing system receives this information to set the parameters of the depth vector (qubit QX / red channel), revealing a state of low coherence and the force of chaotic eruption that establishes the first anchor of being. This methodology allows the work to become a reflection of the vector and its potential to sustain structure.
The conceptual narrative takes form as a data sculpture—an organism functioning as a map of the psychic underground. Reactive dominance, by generating asymmetric textures and low coherence in the system, demands a symbolic element capable of containing it. Thus, the red poppy, with its symbolism of forgetfulness, consolation, and the indomitable power of the hidden, becomes the narrative nucleus, transforming the quantum noise of chaos into a recognizable morphology. Each form embodies a pattern of chaos: a constellation in mid-manifestation, sustained by the depths.
The Depth Axis acts as the force that inaugurates form; it reveals how this energy establishes the anchor from which the self draws its sustenance. The piece bears witness to how this vector reorders the psyche, transforming it into an impulse capable of resisting nonexistence and sketching a full potential future. Radix emerges as a territory of introspection, calling us back to that primordial instant in which Chaos founds the anchor and begins shaping identity and the becoming of the Self.
