The Power of Your Senses



Ernesto Neto is a Brazilian artist that creates room sized installations for you to interact with. He creates organic shapes by using light, stretchable fabrics along with delicious smelling spices to awaken all of your senses... he wants the viewer to actually feel his art. He is one of Brazil's absolute leaders in the contemporary art scene.





He describes his works as an exploration and a representation of the body’s landscape from within. It is important to Neto that the viewer should actively interact with and physically experience his work by feeling, smelling, and touching it. His work truly does make you feel alive.
