Giorgia Mack works across a diverse range of mediums. Her work explores the human relationship to natural phenomena. Living in the Anthropocene epoch, a contemporary sublime can be found within artificial environments. It is within this fragmented sublime that a sense of beauty and exhilaration is to be realised. Georgia’s practice operates between subjectivity and objectivity, inner and outer, sublime and beauty, fear and joy, natural and industrial. Prompting us to consider whether it is our own transgressions that we may fear or will this be a platform for which we connect to the beauty around us.
