Contribution from argentina
“ Tiles in Portugal are popular for roofing and for decorating and protecting exterior walls. The azulejos (tiles) are the patrimony integrated in architecture and at first glance it might appear that they are a fragile coating for the city.
When I come back to Buenos Aires form my travel to Europe and started the Lisboa serie I thought about conservation and restoration, about taking care of problems related to ceramics and I created a character made of tile with a broken arm in obvious reference to those damaged wall tiles. ”
