Facing the majestic architecture, objects resist, with their stories, connected to higher levels that evoke the virtual world, but also reaffirm the material essence that dwells. No two ropes entrecruzar, divine power up spaces, feedlots, restrictions or freedom of movement. sparse, but connected to the intent, books, buckets, sand, gears, remains of tools, boxes, Garden sculptures and other objects may portray stories of survival, social rearrangement, nomadic habitats that the precariousness of daily life invents, the hands of the need.
