BAZAAR ART: Featured Works of 2025 Taipei Biennial Whisper on the Horizon!
14 November 2025
Ivana Bašić’s installation work, Passion of Pneumatics, compresses air into kinetic energy, which drives a pneumatic hammer striking a block of alabaster. With each successive blow, the stone's surface quietly shatters. This ingenious installation transforms the intangible “rhythm of breath” into tangible energy capable of altering physical matter. Combined with an altar-like design and flanked by elegant yet enigmatic biomachines, it forms a mechanical structure that uses sound and kinetic energy to interrogate the relationship between the tangible and the intangible.
