In this short film, Josiah McElheny discusses his new project Study for The Center is Everywhere (2012), an artwork in book format that is made using traditional letter press techniques. McElheny's book is a loose translation of 19th century writer August Blanqui's cosmological text Eternity Through the Stars, written in prison in 1871. McElheny has adopted the focus of this text – that the “centre is everywhere” and that, in essence, there is no hierarchy to the world – to preface his own exploration into cosmology in his sculptural work.
