Camila Sposati

Born 1972 in Saõ Paulo, lives and works in Vienna. 

Camila Sposati investigates processes of creation and transformation, of the Earth, of the elements, of energy and the social and epistemological systems that shape our experiences of them. Using methods that often approach scientific research methodologies, Sposati examines social and geological systems from the micro to the macro, from the growth of crystals in controlled laboratories to the movement of the Earth’s crust. In her work, Sposati juxtaposes material and historical processes in order to challenge our perception of nature and its significations.
