The Lines of Doubt

€115.00

The Lines of Doubt draws on the traces left by subatomic particles in high-energy physics experiments. These particles are not directly observed; they are inferred through the paths they leave behind—curved, fragmented lines that register interaction without revealing the entity itself.

The work frames these traces as a model of knowledge. What is visible is not the object, but its effect—an index of interaction shaped by underlying probabilities. Each line represents a moment of partial resolution, where uncertainty is not eliminated but structured into form.

This condition positions doubt as intrinsic rather than oppositional to understanding. At the subatomic level, certainty does not precede observation; it emerges through interpretation of incomplete and transient signals.

The piece isolates this dynamic as a broader principle: that knowledge is constructed through traces, and that what is known remains inseparable from the uncertainty through which it is observed.
