The Gel State series draws inspiration from the scientific definition of a gel as a non-fluid colloidal network, a substance that occupies an ambiguous position between liquid and solid. Prince extends this notion into a sculptural inquiry, examining the instability of appearances and the ways in which material states can be conceptually inverted. Within this body of work, liquid becomes solid, the animated is revealed as static, transparency conceals opacity, and solidity gives way to hollowness. Through these deliberate inversions, the series challenges perceptual assumptions, prompting viewers to reconsider the boundaries between categories that are typically understood as fixed. Gel State thus operates at the intersection of material science and phenomenology, revealing the mutable, often deceptive nature of what we perceive as stable reality
