Emily Orta: Whims of Panspermia presents clay sculptures that investigate the moment where form ceases to be an object and becomes a presence. Sharing similar forms yet never identical, the works suggest bodies without being bodies, creatures without being defined — named yet part of a dispersed system where origin gives way to continuation. The title frames clay's transformation as cosmic deposit and unpredictable drift: from cold and mineral to gradually hardened, entangled in a world that never truly concludes. What persists is not identity but tendency — matter's soft inclination to gather, repeat, and vary, suspended between arrival and rest.
