Biosphere

Artwork called "Biosphere" made 2009 by Tomas Saraceno (b. 1973) from Argentine. The Biosphere is inspired by scientific studies of e.g. clouds, soap bubbles, and the geometric principles of cob-webs. Saraceno is originally trained as an architect, and his biospheres can be viewed as models for alternative types of social spaces and habitats for people. Taking a metaphorical and poetic approach to serious issues such as Earth´s overpopulation, environment, and migration, Saraceno wishes to point to new potential relationships between culture and nature.

From an exhibition at the National Gallery of Denmark (Danish: Statens Museum for Kunst).
