Work: 175 x 25 x 25 cm

This work follows the same principle of the other Travel Sculpture works, which can easily be assembled and disassembled. The height of this work is 1,75cm, which is my height. I cut each section according to the sections of my body. The fun part is that you can rearrange the sections in different ways: My nose under my knee, my neck on my belly, and my leg on top of my head…or just spread the pieces around the room. I decided to include this work as some kind of a scale, a “physical” presence. Due to the circumstances I cannot be at the exhibition, so it will be a “Solo presentation" of works. - Mateo López, 2020.
