Drawing inspiration from both science and mythology, Verena Bachl creates artworks that combine archetypal symbolism with objects and methods of industrial mass production. Light installations immerse her sculptural works in a synthetic atmosphere reminiscent of their natural model. Elements of the electronic and industrial age are combined to create a form of techno-organic proliferation. By creating a speculative scenography for her combinations of minimalist form and technological implementation with contrasting textures of metal, glass, and stone, she is revealing visions of a future already in decay. 

In her current works, Bachl approaches production systems not with confidence in their usefulness, but with quiet skepticism. She treats machines and functional objects not as tools, but as relics—structures stripped of their original purpose and transformed into ambiguous artefacts. By evoking the aesthetics of function, Bachl opens a space for uncertainty, poetic resistance, and the irreducible presence of the unknown within a world characterized by efficiency.
