Hybrid solitary... semi-social quintet... on cosmic webs...

According to the gallery, "Saraceno has long included arachnology as a tool for the investigation of alternative constructions ... spider webs spark inquiry into possible modes to redefine relationships between humans and nature, proposing utopian conditions for sustainable societies."

Further, "Entering into Saraceno’s installation on the ground floor of Tanya Bonakdar Gallery, perception is reoriented in a darkened environment dotted with glowing sculptures articulated in silvery spider silk. Formed of complex interwoven geometries suspended in air, each piece appears as a unique galaxy floating within an expansive, infinite landscape." To create each web construction, "each cube [was] turned onto its various sides, dislodging gravity and interweaving concepts of freedom and control within the work."

The exhibition of new large-scale installation, sculptures and works on paper by Tomás Saraceno is on display at Tanya Bonakdar Gallery until 2 May 2015.
