Tropical Space Project by Simón Vega

Artwork Description

 

Original title of the artwork: Tropical Space Project

Simón Vega creates drawings, ephemeral sculptures and installations inspired in the informal, self -made architecture and vendor carts found in the streets and marginal zones of El Salvador and Central America. These works, assembled with wood, cardboard, plastic and found materials often parody famous Modernist and mythological buildings and cities, surveillance systems as well as high-tech robots and satellites developed by NASA and the Soviet Space Program during the Cold War, creating an ironic and humorous fusion between first and third world, while commenting on the effects of that conflict in today’s Central America.
