On hospitality (i.e. Exclusion)
type: design and fabrication of artwork for Etenne Chambaud exhibition "On hospitality- De la hospitalidad" // location: LABOR Gallery, Mexico City, Mexico // crane + steel + volcanic stones // dimension: variable
description: On Hospitality (i.e. Exclusion) is 4.5 TON mobile that doesn’t fit within its own exhibition space. Composed of raw industrial elements and volcanic stones, its totality can never be experienced. Going through the entire building of the gallery, without ever touching it and even suspended from outside (by a crane parked next door to the gallery), its objecthood is always challenged by the mental image it must necessary conjure in order to exist as part of the piece itself*
