Saraceno’s is a visual art that feeds off the input from other fields of knowledge: from architecture to the natural sciences, from astrophysics to anthropology, and from engineering to ecology.

Split into series that repeat over the years, his work is made up of large immersive installations with a playful and spectacular appearance, in the form of flying cities or spider webs, which the audience then interacts with, modifying them with the weight of their own bodies.
