Dalila Pasotti's work expresses her inquiry into the physical laws governing the cosmos. Driven by a fascination with the unknown, her sculptures and drawings depict scientific phenomena while highlighting their underlying mystery. She uses a rigorous scientific approach to explore the relationship between space and time, their relative nature, and their complex effects on perception. Although these phenomena often occur beyond the limits of human perception, like the subconscious, they have profound effects on our everyday lives. Pasotti’s practice seeks to make this concrete, thus providing a way to both better understand reality and escape it.
