Now I Become Death, Destroyer of Worlds
Julya Hajnoczky and Irene Rasetti
The exhibition's title is a reference to a line from the Bhagavad Gita quoted by J. Robert Oppenheimer as he commented on witnessing the first tests of the atomic bomb. For both Hajnoczky and Rasetti, their work functions as a process of documenting the current moment — this time in history during which we are watching the daily destruction of the environment and the loss of species and whole ecosystems. Serving as documents and records, the works offer the viewer a moment of reflection and an invitation to fall in love again with the wonder and beauty of our natural surroundings.
