Alter-Altar

Within this work, I imagine a contemporary approach to the construction of a temple-Altar, whereby my background, life experience and surrounding landscapes become the building “stones” of the sculpture. This Altar is a gateway to something else, it includes the current transitions and transmis- sion we face, but also form, both individually and collectively. Whereas a small satellite captivates the outer forces, the bottom part of the sculpture seeks to find its balance and communicate to the subterranean level. All the recovered matter I use seems to be in dialogue with their own sub- stance and consistency. The apparent collapse nature of the sculpture is in fact harmoniously built, whereby each layer of elements supports all the other fragments and residues of matter.
