Tomás Saraceno

View of Uyuni from Lacaille 9352

2016

A sweeping vision of the Bolivian salt flats as seen from the vantage point of a distant star, this work by Tomás Saraceno dissolves the boundaries between cosmic and terrestrial scales. True to his practice, Saraceno invites contemplation of interconnected systems — atmospheric, gravitational, and ecological — collapsing the vast distances of space into an intimate, almost meditative encounter. The piece reflects his enduring fascination with reimagining human relationships to the universe and the fragile webs that bind all living and non-living matter together.
