In memory – Na Memoria

María Jesús Rodríguez, 2000. Iron and paint.
In the Memoria-Na Memoria is a sculptural group made up of two pieces, small black monoliths just over two meters high and irregularly shaped. They are made of cast iron and installed in the middle of a small pond, in good company with reeds and surface aquatic plants. They are seemingly worn totem poles, like motionless fossils. Vegetables turned to stone and furrowed by a thousand cracks. At its base, a bed of pebbles, a world of transparencies within reach of the passerby.
