Time Drops in Decay

Go back to projects

A fleet of seven floating sister-sculptures generating inner spaces that expand optically beyond their physical limits.

The sculptures are divided by their behavior into three categories: Pozo (a hole or also slang for solitary confinement cell), Tumba (a tomb or also slang for prison) and Horca (Gallows). Pozos float in bodies of water — flooded streets, rivers, and oceans — subject to currents and winds; Horcas are suspended from lamp posts; Tumbas are buried under the earth.

Each sculpture is one yard in diameter – crafted from mirror, glass, silicone and fishing line.

Notes on idea.
