Artwork Description

The work 'COLLAPSE' is composed of two main sequences: a sculptural module made with discarded wood, and the fragmentation of a wall from an old house in demolition. These materials, initially considered waste, are carefully reworked and reused by the artist, becoming the aesthetic and conceptual nucleus of the piece. The project proposes a reflection on memory, the transformation of matter, and the re-signification of elements in contexts of urban change.
