NONSPHERES IV is the latest work of luis berríos-negrón's investigation into the contemporary tension between nature and technology. this project will take the shape of a digitally generated lattice. the simulation of a carbon tetrahedral lattice will fill the whole gallery - suggesting a continuous remote set of relationships, intended to incite what freud calls 'oceanic feelings' (or infantile sensation of oundlessness between the ego and the outside world) and it's further supported by works on two geopolitically charged locations – teufelsberg (berlin) and bibi mahro (kabul). we've already reported about luis berríos-negrón.
