que abarca escultura, vídeo, texto y sonido/audio

Sugiero una traducción un poco libre para no calcar la construcción inglesa de gerundio.
Esta sería la estructura (con independencia de la terminología que hayas elegido):
"El trabajo de Angela Bulloch, que abarca escultura, vídeo, texto y sonido/audio, se ocupa de sistemas y principios ordenadores, ya sean astronómicos, estéticos, matemáticos o culturales"

Entiendo que este es el sentido de "span":
span [sth] vtr figurative (idea: cross over) abarcar⇒ vtr
His ideas span both philosophy and economics.
Sus ideas abarcan tanto la filosofía como la economía.
