POST WOOK

The artist

A meditation on time, technology, and legacy, The Timekeeper, 2025 stands as POST WOOK’s most ambitious work to date—a perpetual, evolving composition that will continue shifting until the final Bitcoin is mined in 2140. Using ephemeris data, Bitcoin’s finite lifespan, and recursive layering drawn from her seminal collection The Astronomer’s Daughter, POST WOOK challenges the structural constraints of blockchain as a medium, transforming raw data into a living, breathing work of art. The piece is not merely an aesthetic exploration but a profound dialogue between celestial mechanics and the mechanics of cryptocurrency—a collision of satellite data and cryptographic permanence. Inextricably tied to the artist’s lineage, The Timekeeper, 2025 also serves as a tribute to her father, whose 43-year tenure at NASA shaped the thematic foundations of her work. Through this intergenerational lens, the piece becomes a reflection on the nature of time itself: measured, finite, yet infinitely unfolding.
