Small pieces of welded galvanized steel with a 14 cm base and a maximum height of 22 cm.

Inspired by the old buildings in the port area of Rio de Janeiro, the industrial series portrays the old factories and warehouses that were demolished to make way for apartment buildings. In response to a growing population, these centuries-old buildings are facing extinction. As an example, there is the old deactivated Bhering chocolate factory, where my studio is today, and inspired my work.
