Esther Hunziker, «Inside», 2022
Hunziker’s work is based on the dual concept of macrocosm and microcosm. She links microbiology to the macrocosm, from inside humans to the universe (cells/planets, neurons/stars, microbes/asteroids, DNA & proteins/galaxies, electrons/universe). Referring to her background as a fashion designer, the artist describes her work as a tailor-made “dress” for the building.
The artwork of Esther Hunziker will be on display for half an hour at sunset on the designated dates below:

Daniel Canogar, «Oculus», 2022
Daniel Canogar’s work for the zero-energy media façade is a generative abstract animation that responds in real time to climate change data. An algorithm developed by the artist’s studio accesses a series of websites that monitor various phenomena, including polar ice cap melt, carbon dioxide levels, active fire data and global temperature anomalies. The animation is a reference to color-coded graphs traditionally used to track these phenomena; he reinterprets them artistically.

Semiconductor, «Morphogenetic Movements», 2022
The artwork by artist duo Semiconductor for the media façade is a series of real-time generative animations that transform the façade of Novartis Pavillon into a biological, self-organizing system. By generating cell-like forms that evolve from visual noise to legible patterns and back again, the artwork explores self-organization as a contemporary research method applied to biomedical research (and other scientific fields) to create an understanding of how biological entities interact, evolve and function as a system.
The artwork of Semiconductor will be on display for half an hour at sunset on the designated dates below:
02.04.2026│05.04.2026│08.04.2026│11.04.2026│14.04.2026│17.04.2026│20.04.2026│23.04.2026│26.04.2026│29.04.2026│02.05.2026│05.05.2026│08.05.2026│11.05.2026│14.05.2026│17.05.2026│20.05.2026│23.05.2026│26.05.2026│29.05.2026│01.06.2026│04.06.2026│07.06.2026│10.06.2026│13.06.2026│16.06.2026│19.06.2026│22.06.2026│25.06.2026│28.06.2026
