By combining plastic fragments with minerals and placing them under heat and pressure to simulate the Earth’s geological processes, Shahar Livne’s Metamorphism investigates the nature of emerging materials at a time when plastic has become part of the planet’s stratigraphy.

This chapter of the ongoing research "Metamorphism", called "Deep Time", reflects on the notion of plastic as a nonbiodegradable “hyper object” that functions outside of the cycles of life and death.
