Maura Biava is fascinated by the hidden laws of nature, and her work revolves around that. According to Biava, it is the entanglement in between information, matter and energy that shapes our reality. To make this visible in her work, Biava uses clay as matter, mathematics, numbers and analytic geometry as information and her actions and performances as energy.
For her Magic Heptagrams, Biava translates cerebral mathematical and philosophical exploration into aesthetic and organic sculptures. Magic Heptagram is the name of the formula that gives cacti its distinctive shape. She used this formula to create her sculptures, and with this Biava wishes to emphasize the presence of mathematics and informing / forming codes in our reality.
