Escombro

Escombro is the name of this series by Ignacio Pérez- Jofre made throughout 2014 , in which the artist paints buildings in the city of Vigo on fragments of debris collected in the street. Painted directly in front of their models and generally in one sitting, each of the pieces is constructed paradoxically on the remains of a knockdown building, establishing a curious game of relationships and meanings between the model and the support on which it is represented.
