Through the ancient divination tool of the dice set, this work by Christalena Hughmanick and Steven Vainberg uses chance to create a series of visual outcomes in the form of a book. The set of six dice has been cast in tinted wax and upon each toss, a series of marks accumulates on the page to create a drawing. The dice, which act as the vehicle for drawing, construct fifty random compositions and arrangements of numbers. In the context of a game or for the purposes of prophecy the outcome of each roll politely asks for interpretation in order to determine a following action. In this series of images, the moment of projection is frozen for the viewer to seek a narrative or truth of their own.
