Description The states of the body, the world within the mind, and the cosmos of the immaterial are the three planes we exist in simultaneously. It is this place which J.Brown is interested in illuminating in his new installation Within the Ephemeron with using text, fabric, light, and plastic he attempts to expose the mechanisms of the digital which are just beyond the scope of our collective perception.
