Tania Candiani - Summoning Wonder

In this generous conversation, artist Tania Candiani shares her vision of enlivening contemporary science and technology with “big doses of beauty and poetry and magical connection”—pointing to ways she seeks to do so through her practice. Inciting elaborate collaborations across disciplines, Candiani’s meticulous (yet at times serendipitous) approach to research is above all an act of listening: tuning in deeply while embracing the unknown in a shapeshifting pas de deux with the quantum realm.
