We find some of the most extreme objects beyond our imagination in the far reaches of our universe. Being natural phenomena, they simply exist. These objects are not conscious. What if one of them was? What if it could exert its will on others?

I examine the dynamics of power through science fiction. With the exploration of these objects, I break down the interaction between people and institutions in our society which act without consideration for those who live under them. In unraveling these dynamics, I reveal the function behind the immense structures under which we live.

Ethan LeRoith is a contemporary artist focused on the dynamics of power and conflict.

He has been creating art of some kind for essentially all his life. Early in high school, he began 3D modeling as a hobby, making terrible science fiction vehicles in Trimble SketchUp. In December of 2018, he made the jump to Blender 3D, becoming self-taught in the software through free online tutorials. Most of his art practice now takes place in the Digital 3D medium.

Ethan earned a BFA in Creative Technologies at Virginia Tech. He lives and works in the United States as the promotional designer for The Sojourn Audio Drama, doing video production, animation, and rendering.
