Ex Nihilo is a collaboration between artist Daniel Shea and OK-RM. It is a work documenting material products, exploring transformative processes and their manifold outcomes. It is a work of fiction, exposing the mysteries of how matter and being appear to emerge from nothing. At times, these artefacts have been formed by a geological aeon. Elsewhere, they are the work of a single person in one day. A landscape has the presence of a built form, while a building is presented with the factual quality of a monolith. The project transcends time, space and scale. It appears in many forms, including a book and an edition, a series of installations and a capsule collection. The edition comprises a series of printed objects (a book, a set of six posters and a signature of plates) in a high-gloss folder secured with a rubber band. Each of the objects explore distinct formats, materiality and print techniques.

Please note, the folder of #19 has slight damage at the corner.
