Event Horizon Ad Infinitum
Inspired by spirals, cycles, and science fiction wormholes, Event Horizon Ad Infinitum invites visitors into an immersive experience of light, sound, material memory, and connection.
Event Horizon Ad Infinitum
Event Horizon Ad Infinitum is a large-scale, site-specific installation by Leticia Bajuyo that transforms donated, obsolete CDs and DVDs into shimmering sculptural forms that move through the University of Mississippi Museum's galleries and exterior spaces.
Inspired by spirals, cycles, and science fiction wormholes, the installation invites visitors into an immersive experience of light, sound, material memory, and connection.
Through the transformation of discarded media, Bajuyo considers how technologies of storage, communication, and circulation shape memory, value, attention, and belonging, while also revealing what technological systems leave behind. Built through a labor-intensive process of drilling, stitching, weaving, and installation, the project is also made possible through the shared contributions of students, museum staff, and community volunteers.
Event Horizon Ad Infinitum was developed with support from the Institute for Community and Society Transformation, the OU Arts & Humanities Forum, and the Office of the Vice President for Research and Partnerships at the University of Oklahoma. Additional exhibit support came from the Friends of the Museum at the University of Mississippi Museum.

About the Artist
Leticia R. Bajuyo is an interdisciplinary artist known for public sculpture, immersive installations, and hand-built objects. Working with familiar forms, industrial materials, architectural surfaces, and cast metal, she explores systems of value, material memory, environmental impact, and belonging. Her work often begins with materials and objects that carry traces of use, labor, desire, and transformation, becoming sculptures and installations that consider how landscapes, economies, and domestic ideals shape identity and place. Raised in rural Midwest flyover communities, Bajuyo received her B.F.A from the University of Notre Dame and her M.F.A from the University of Tennesee, Knoxville. She currently lives and works in Norman, Oklahoma, where she is Associate Professor of Sculpture at the University of Oklahoma.
