Martha Boto — Plexiglas and motor
Martha Boto

Plexiglas and motor

A mesmerizing kinetic sculpture by Argentine artist Martha Boto, this work harnesses the interplay of light and movement through its transparent plexiglas elements set in motion by a concealed motor. The rotating or oscillating components create shifting optical patterns and luminous refractions, transforming the surrounding space into a dynamic visual experience. Boto's signature exploration of light, time, and perception is fully realized in this elegant fusion of industrial materials and kinetic energy.
