“I hope that people see their capacity within their sphere of interaction, to respond to larger ecosystems, to feel and be a part of them.” — Tomás Saraceno
Born in Argentina in 1973, he now lives and works in Berlin, Germany. He earned a Master's degree in architecture. In 2001, he went to Germany to study art and in 2009 he joined NASA's International Space Research Program. These interdisciplinary experiences combine creation with aesthetics, architecture, science, and environmental causes in a new balance that no longer separates art and science. Tomás also believes that we should learn and pay attention to the principles of ecology as a system of cohabitation of different cultures and regions, and understand the necessity of the principle of cooperation in the universe in which we live, in order to seek answers for the future survival of the human species.
