HOLES: #1–1000

Book Design, Research Methodology
2025 Fall

5 × 7.5 in, 1520p

Self-initiated Project ε(*ᴗ͈ˬᴗ͈)ꕤ*

HOLES: #1-1000 examines holes through examples drawn from photography, sculpture, architecture, everyday objects, paintings, and digital culture. An epic archive of 1,000 images compiled over 1,520 pages. By juxtaposing similar and dissimilar images, it constructs a comparative reading that traces how holes shift across media, scale, context, and culture.

It foregrounds the relational nature of voids: hole as media exist in relation to surrounding matter, objects, space, or conceptual frameworks. Through this multidisciplinary approach, the work invites readers to reconsider how absence, emptiness, and negative space function aesthetically, cognitively, and socially.
