Hyperobjects - Orbiting the Invisible

This visual essay interprets Timothy Morton’s theory of hyperobjects—entities so vast in time, space, and complexity that they defy full human comprehension. Examples include climate change, nuclear waste, or the internet. These objects are “viscous” (they stick to us), “nonlocal” (they're everywhere at once), and unfold across immense timescales. Through an atomic metaphor, the project illustrates how such phenomena interconnect with wicked problems like plastic pollution and water scarcity, emphasizing the invisible systems shaping our world.
