Hacer un Paisaje
Light installation, 2026, Centro Cultural Ex Correo Central, Buenos Aires


This installation is composed of poetic objects that process light. It addresses the phenomenon of light and its effects on a particular material, both through its physical qualities and its sensory effects. Through specific scientific knowledge about light and its relationship with other materials, it seeks to reveal its emotional power. It connects the beauty of light and its relationship with the universe.

There is a link with the building: it is embedded, amalgamated, fitted, and reflected.
White mirror. Diffuse and sharp at the same time. It changes slowly. It elevates the function of the space it occupies. Residual space, a passageway, unnoticed.
It problematizes the idea of landscape. Due to its dimensions, the building shapes the landscape and allows for a distant view of the intervention. But it also creates an immersive in-space; it can be inhabited. It haptically affects bodies, modifying, through this bodily interruption, the distant view and the forms of that landscape.

The light sculptures that comprise it were created from the idea of electronic flora. They are sustained like symbiotic devices, suspended from the building's architecture, focusing on a detail of its construction and revealing the beauty of the conjunction between macrocosm and material microcosm. The grafted objects, supported, almost floating in tension, are discreet objects, but their effects are continuous. Slowness, deceleration, and contemplation; encounters, intersections, and ensembles emerge from the distance between natural and artificial light.

Rojo Fulgor
Site specific Light installation, 2025, Santiago de Chile


The apparent movement of the sun and the color gradients in the sky are deeply ingrained in our imagination. Although the sky is perceived as a static dome, it is actually a vast expanse of constantly transforming gases. If we think of light as the condition that makes vision possible, and the visual as light, we can feel immersed in the light of the atmosphere.

Red Glow is a light installation that works with the subtlety of light's color changes, blurring the perception of time and space, and generating a kind of suspended state. It proposes an experience of being in the light, in which the sensory and the emotional intertwine. Through lighting devices integrated into the architecture, a poetic environment will be constructed that combines scientific research and affective resonance.

Light, like sound, is a temporal phenomenon. Its constant transformation allows for the creation of immersive atmospheres that affect our perception in a subtle yet profound way. While the sun emits all wavelengths of the visible spectrum, the waves we perceive as "red" are the first to reach our eyes when the sun is at its farthest point—at sunset or sunrise. What is the relationship between this scientific fact and the emotional, sensory, and poetic implications of that color?

I am interested in exploring that deep core, that invisible underwater current that shapes the structure of a fluid, ever-changing, almost imperceptible sensation, like the shifting colors of the sky.

Within this framework, the concept of chromosaturation, developed by Carlos Cruz-Diez, is also incorporated as a reference point for considering total immersion in color. Not as an end in itself, but as a tool to enhance the perception of color as an autonomous and living reality.

The installation was realized in the foyer on the second floor of the University of Chile Theater in Santiago, Chile. Taking advantage of its architecture—where artificial light highlights the morphology of the ceilings—the light wells of the space were transformed. The design incorporated light gradients inspired by the colors of the sky at sunset: warm, enveloping reddish tones and a 7-minute animation. The red of the carpet is integrated as an active element, enhancing the immersive experience.

Machines of Joy
Light installation, 2025, DEVCON Buenos Aires


“Artists do not create objects, but create by way of objects.”
James P. Carse, Infinite Games

Machines of Joy is an electronic garden composed of light-emitting robots and electronic waste. Conceived as a small universe of its own, the installation constructs a system in which material, conceptual, and informational elements interact through circulating signals.

The title reflects the intention to create devices that, although built from discarded technology, emit light, color, and movement capable of evoking perceptual connection. These machines are not tools of utility but instruments of sensation, inviting viewers to engage with the interplay between artificial and natural elements. Through their motion and luminosity, they suggest forms of renewal, transforming electronic waste into sources of vitality and poetic experience.

The installation draws inspiration from the apparent movement of the sun around the Earth and the atmospheric colors it generates. Each robot reproduces gradients drawn from the sky and is designed to sense and respond to their surroundings in movements recalling the rhythms of planetary motion. The installation turns these natural phenomena into poetic objects, approaching light through both its physical qualities and its sensible effects, and drawing on knowledge about natural light to reveal its emotional resonance and its relationship with the universe.
It was presented in the group exhibition Echoing as one, which took place during the Ethereum International Conference in November 2025 in Buenos Aires.

  LINEAL
 Light object, 2024





Inspired by the natural light decomposition and observable color gradients in the sky, this object emerges as a fusion of art and design. LINEAL stands as the initial product in a series with a singular objective: to create an experience of light and color that transforms our inhabited spaces.

LINEAL is materialized into a functional object using digital manufacturing technologies, electronics and LED devices. The interaction between different materialities generates a support for the gradient whose colors are calibrated using electronic components.

Due to their manufacturing process, although they are produced in series and have similarities, each LINEAL is unique. The result is a luminous object that produces its own sky, radiating color and warmth.

LINEAL is a lighting object resulting from the collaboration between the light artist Magdalena Molinari and the FUGA studio, made up of industrial designers Ignacio Avilés and Lucila Beren.
