CHINAMPAS These works were based on the idea of the floating gardens on the lake of Xochimilco in the southern part of Mexico City, where the Aztecs had invented a novel system of agriculture that provided provisions for their city, built in the middle of a lake. These sculptures are, in a sense, landscapes. But they are enclosed landscapes. These sculpture/islands are set on bases of dark mirror. Floating reflections. The memory of the water surrounds a sculptural event. |
