Marshmallow Laser Feast is no stranger to scale, nor to sensation. The acclaimed experiential collective, known for fusing art and technology into deeply immersive encounters, has built a reputation for revealing what lies beneath the surface of the visible world.

What happens when a “typology,” a principle once used to categorise and study ferns and flowers, is turned toward the human gaze, the face of a nation, or the geometry of an industrial water tower? In a world where the image is omnipresent and meaning diluted, Typologien: Photography in 20th-Century Germany offers a pause.
Viviane Sassen: The Alchemy of Mortality

3 weeks ago | aestheticamagazine.com | Eleanor Sutherland

“All photographs are memento mori. To take a photograph is to participate in another person’s (or thing’s) mortality, vulnerability, mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs testify to time’s relentless melt.” – Susan Sontag, On Photography (1977). This profound quote by Susan Sontag lays the foundation for This Body Made of Stardust, a deeply evocative new exhibition by Viviane Sassen, on view at Collezione Maramotti from 27 April to 27 July 2025.

1 month ago | aestheticamagazine.com | Eleanor Sutherland

Today, the worlds of video games, artificial intelligence and contemporary converge in new and unprecedented ways. Technology is advancing at breakneck speed, and artists are harnessing the power of AI, game engines and digital tools to create immersive, thought-provoking works that redefine the boundaries of creativity.

Reimagined Landscapes

1 month ago | aestheticamagazine.com | Eleanor Sutherland

Contemporary photographers often look to paintings from centuries past, reimagining their use of light, composition and symbolism for a modern audience. Think Jeff Wall’s A Sudden Gust of Wind (after Hokusai) (1993), which translated the Japanese artist’s 1832 woodblock into a contemporary setting with office workers and flying sheets of paper. Then there’s Elina Brotherus’ 2004 reinterpretation of German painter Caspar David Friedrich’s Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog (1818).
