El pajarraco Sculpture

‘El pajarraco’ (large bird of unknown type) is a work of art which is a fusion of two cultures; Latin American and European. It is inspired by artworks from both continents, the totems created by indigenous peoples in Latin America and the use of collage and sculptures made from recycled everyday objects, which was started by European artists like Picasso. ‘El pajarraco’ represents the natural world which surrounds us and the transcendent nature of migration – in this case not only of birds but also human beings, who nowadays move without many apparent limits. At the same time the artwork also draws attention to humanities excessive use of materials which results in the contamination of the planet, something which ironically travels without limits as a result of our migration from one continent to another. The artwork was recently exhibited at the Brazilian Embassy in London, where it had been shortlisted for the VIA arts prize - a prestigious competition organised by the Latin American Embassies in London.
