Summary

1. Dark Matter by Granville Carroll is an artist's book about darkness and light, the infinity of the cosmos and the divine, big bangs and subtle language. Themes relating to cosmic origins and thoughts on existence, life and death, are embedded in the writings and images. Comprised of heavy black paper with only silver and black printing, the reader of Dark Matter must adjust to an aesthetic where light reaches into an already compelling and infinite-seeming blackness. Dark Matter expands on Carroll's themes of Afrofuturism, years of beautiful experiments with analog and digital photographic montage techniques, and poetry. --
