TOMÁS SARACENO'S INSTALLATION AT THE COPENAGHEN PLANETARIUM
The Copenhagen Planetarium opens a permanent installation by Tomás Saraceno, Cosmic Threads, where the public is invited to reflect on the enigmas of the universe and human responsibility for the future of the planet.
Cosmic Threads is Tomás Saraceno's new installation at Copenhagen Planetarium, a project to experience a new fusion of art, science and technology. The installation marks Saraceno's first permanent work in Denmark and his first collaboration with a planetarium in the world.
Argentine artist Tomás Saraceno created a site-specific installation that extends to the height -of twenty-five meters- and the total length -of forty-two- of the Stair Gallery. Cosmic Threads captures light in a complex web of threads, where planets and air pockets float like galaxies, a visual metaphor for the connections between cosmic and terrestrial structures.
For Saraceno, the opportunity to create a work for a planetarium has been a lifelong dream: "Ever since I was a child, planetariums all over the world have fascinated me. Their task is to awaken curiosity and wonder about the great cosmic questions. It has been a dream to create a work that not only reinforces this fascination, but also opens up new ways of understanding our place in the universe. Cosmic Threads is one of my most complex works, inviting the audience to examine the connections between science, art and our common future, a future that must be rethought in light of the climate crisis.”
The work creates a “space” for reflection and invites the public to explore the challenges facing humanity at a time when the climate crisis demands a rethinking of humans' relationship with nature, energy consumption and the myriad species with which they share the planet.
