            They ask to stay, 2022

                                                                     
                                                           Glass beads, acrylic beads, cement, paraffin, epoxy resin with bronze charge,
                                                           wire, nylon thread and plaster
                                                           205 x 20 x 20 cm



The artisanal and ritualistic weaving technique of the net (made in seed beads)
evokes dynamics that oppose the subject, marketed bananas and the material,
industrial concrete.

he weight of the fossilized banana evokes the burden of its historical memory,
opposing the simplified modern mobility of merchandise transport.
