Gay Malin:

As we try to understand our universe, String Theory has emerged as one possibility for the ultimate "Theory of Everything", a quest rooted in quantum physics theory. It basically states that all energy and matter is made up of tiny vibrating strings. Another aspect is that there are unobservable dimensions to the universe.
“These ideas have led me to think about the world we inhabit in new and exciting ways. I have expanded on the idea of strings as a unifying element on a more human level, and the results are being shown in my current series titled 'String Theory'.”
In addition, there are other works exploring our way of being in the universe with themes such as emergence "Primus Ordiri", disintegration "Manus Deputo", and containment, "Boxed", Framed" and "Masked".
