VOSSIL

Fossilizing is a way of capturing time, of turning life into a petrified testimony that silently reminds us of the fleeting nature of existence. Preserving, on the other hand, is a conscious act of resistance, an active defense of what still breathes, as if we somehow understand that true wealth lies in what already exists.

These two forces, fossilization and preservation, engage in a dialogue about permanence and change, about what we stand to lose if we fail to care for what we have. It is also a reminder of our capacity to alter or save the world around us, and of the urgency to protect the present so we do not mourn its future absence.
