Magnetic Landscapes The visualization of intangible forces, starting from the electroacoustic translation - in which the electrical energy is converted into acoustic energy allows to obtain new sources of material for the plastic exploration. Magnetic Landscapes is composed of works presented in various media that, through the translation of latent electromagnetic forces, creates new static and dynamic contents. During the course of the exhibition, the works propose an electric landscape of the city of Helsinki, obtained from visualizations and data representations.
