Conservation of Matter

by Meg Ledford

Conservation of Matter delves into the lives of two individuals, each in their own timeline—one set in the 1990s and the other in the 2010s. It's a nonlinear narrative exploring institutional systems, personal growth, and a shared fascination with outer space.
