Bioplex 6 – Per Svensson


With his partiality for open areas and natural environments, Swedish artist Per Svensson uses nature for inspiration to create works of art which are both complex and poetical. Based on extensive observation of biological systems he realizes sound pieces, live audio and video performances, drawings and unique installations in which science is always close to the occult. Creator of what he calls alchemic platforms, Svensson elaborates new geometrical forms, inspired by the fractal development of nature, and seeks to make new dimensions visible. Bioplex 6 is an example of an alchemic platform, it is composed of multiple elements and reflects a new stage in the artist’s research. Among its numerous references to mathematics—but also to numerology and occultism—the number 6 refers to the sixth dimension obtained by the shadows projected by the three-dimensional geometric mobiles on the wall, which form a new structural architecture.


Adepte des grands espaces et des environnements naturels, le Suédois Per Svensson s’inspire de la nature pour créer des œuvres d’art à la fois complexes et poétiques. A partir de l’observation minutieuse du système biologique, il réalise des bandes sonores, des performances live audio et vidéo, des dessins et des installations singulières dans lesquelles la science avoisine toujours l’occulte. Créateur de plateformes alchimiques, telles qu’il les nomme, Svensson élabore de nouvelles formes géométriques, inspirées du développement en fractale de la nature, et cherche à rendre visibles de nouvelles dimensions. Composé de multiples éléments, Bioplex 6 est un exemple de plateforme alchimique et correspond à une nouvelle étape dans le travail de l’artiste. Parmi ses nombreuses valeurs tant dans les mathématiques que dans la numérologie ou l’occultisme, le chiffre 6 se réfère ici à la sixième dimension obtenue grâce aux ombres que projettent les mobiles géométriques en trois dimensions sur le mur, formant ainsi une nouvelle architecture structurelle.
