Intervention on barrel & Poem on clay, 3m x 3m
Public Collection. Barrel Museum, Zacatecas, Mex.
The Museum holds a permanent collection of Interventions on wine Barrels by Mexican artists.
"My piece was the first one to be completely broken apart and abstracted from its original form. Due to my experience working with stone, I wanted not only to carve the wood, but use the internal natural red colour to inspire my subject. A sculpture in which the wine becomes the “blood” that will preserve and regenerate live."
