Hunter Longe studies the intersections of geological time, material transformation, and speculative narratives. Through a multidisciplinary approach, he examines how materials—both natural and synthetic—embody histories and potential futures. Central to his work is the concept of "deep time," where he juxtaposes ancient geological formations with contemporary materials to create works that evoke both the past and speculative possibilities for the future. Longe often employs materials such as fossilized organisms, minerals, and thermo-sensitive plastics, integrating them into his artworks to highlight the interconnectedness of life, death, and transformation. By manipulating these materials, he creates objects and environments that reflect on the cyclical nature of existence and the passage of time. Through his multidisciplinary approach, Longe invites viewers to contemplate the materiality of the world around them and the unseen forces that shape it.
