SILENCIO is a carving in the face of an ex- granite quarry in rural Spain.
Like many smaller quarries across Spain, it was forced to close due to a restriction of dynamite use following the Madrid train bombings in 2004. Nearby the site a former worker of the quarry opened up a memorial engraving business with his son. The pair were employed to return to the site and carve 'SILENCIO' into the face of the amphitheatre-like walls. The permanent intervention was created for a two man show 'In The Face of Collapse' at Combo and Co with Jacobo Castellano in Cordoba in 2015. |

Monday Morning is a site specific work created and installed at Overhead in the Bronx, New York. The shutters to the space remained open to the public 24/7 during Summer 2016.
The gallery merged into the architecture of the street and the vulnerable polished copper was subject to use and weathering. The work created an ongoing accumulative situation that opened up the gallery live on the street |
