Eduardo Basualdo
FILTER: DESTRUCTIVE FORCES AT WORK
The work of Eduardo Basualdo displayed at Hacking Habitat can be seen as the portrayal of cosmic dark matter that threatens human life on earth, but also as a poetic reflection on today’s information superhighway, the new chaos in which we are still struggling to find our bearings.
Basualdo’s work opens a window onto another world. It reveals something of the invisible and examines the relationship between what the mind experiences and what the body feels. His installations play with our perception and the limits of the material world, and places human kind in perspective. When we come face to face with the mysterious forces of the universe, what remains of us? Our unconsciousness? Our illusions?

Eduardo Basualdo (Argentina, 1977)
Eduardo Basualdo is inspired by the forces of nature, forces beyond the influence of people. He also explores cultural systems and the ways they try to frame and control the world.
“I return to the notion of man at the center of the universe like a lucid eye, capable of seeing everything but incapable of understanding or changing anything.”
