In Ratio, Rebecca Storm depicts a murky sunset mirrored in reflection, creating a literal 1:1 ratio between the sun and its image. This doubling suggests both balance and impermanence, drawing attention to the fleeting nature of the moment itself. The title also points toward a more existential ratio: the number of sunsets a person could potentially witness versus the limited number they will actually see in a lifetime. Through this idea, the work speaks to anxiety surrounding the passage of time and mortality. The act of observing and preserving ephemeral moments in nature becomes an attempt to resist that inevitability, to momentarily hold onto something already disappearing.
