I would probably need a more specific understanding of how you define the two.
If by void and infinity, you mean total absence, and total presence, then from my vantage point total presence is real, and total absence is imaginary (distortion).
One is looking at the real, and the other is looking at the real through a lens, or translation, that warps the light so that it appears as something different than the real. You could still say its real, but I would call it less real. It's the difference between a broader orbit of infinity and a lower orbit of infinity. To me, distortion is a resistance to reality. It's like holding a cork underwater, it requires effort to maintain. The real requires no effort to maintain. You let go of the cork, it floats to the top.
Interesting about distortion and resistance. I tend to think the Creator is found within resistance and that the entire of infinity is compromised solely of distortions born from resistance of the Creator to Itself.
In fact the first distortion to me means the distortion of infinity. The first illusion, so outside of illusions the true nature of things is void but this void, like any other truer pole of duality, is made manifest through it's counterpart. So the source of resistance is beingness which stands above the paradox of nothing/everything.
In some way, infinity is creation and creation is resistance to nothing.
