Daniel Palacios

Spain

Daniel Palacios, who first trained as a scientist, holds MAs in Art and Technology and Art in the Public Sphere. His artistic practice applies the relations between art, science and technology to space and to systems of perception. It is based on the premise that we cannot observe reality without altering it, which entails that what we perceive is not our actual environment but rather our interaction with it. Palacios’s works have been shown in numerous international exhibitions, among which Synthetic Times at the National Art Museum of China (NAMOC) and The Discreet Charm of Technology at the Museo Extremeño e Iberoamericano de Arte Contemporáneo (MEIAC) in Badajoz, the Neue Galerie Graz, and the Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie (ZKM) in Karlsruhe, and were included in festivals such as ARS Electronica in Linz. As a resident artist at Künstlerhaus Bethanien, Palacios is researching the material perception of immaterial phenomena such as time passing.
