The artist

Franco Verrascina's (Buenos Aires, 1994) relationship with technology began in childhood through video games. The possibility of creating worlds within worlds inspired him to develop his own visual universe, combining 3D software, digital editing, and artificial intelligence. His universe is fueled by a surrealist imagination, molded by simulations and virtual experiences.


He studied Diseño de Videojuegos at Escuela Da Vinci and Diseño de Imagen y Sonido at Universidad de Buenos Aires. During that time, he co-created Magma, an exhibition platform for students of the degree.


Over the years, he shared his work on social media and digital communities under the alter ego Frenetik Void. Under this pseudonym, he built an extensive body of work that has been exhibited in various spaces around the world, including Museo della Permanente (Milan), Palazzo Giustinian Lolin (Venice), Pavilhão Bienal (São Paulo), OGR Torino (Turin), and L’Atelier Éphémère (Paris).


Currently, he continues exploring ways to link his digital work to physical formats.


In this piece, Frenetik Void transports us to a dreamlike universe where the biological and the technological intertwine within a multi-layered entity. A being of impossible anatomy, with translucent skin and hybrid textures that evoke both the organic and the synthetic, unfolds inside a mirrored display that fragments and distorts its form. Its exaggerated grin and gleaming eyes suggest a latent consciousness, an intelligence suspended between euphoria and terror.


The surrounding landscape reinforces the sense of strangeness: a surreal desert stretches beyond the structure, with reflected figures seemingly emerging from other planes of existence. The presence of floating bubbles, cryptic symbols, and distant explosions hints at a world where the ephemeral and the chaotic coexist in a precarious balance
