Exhibition 'Sensory Spaces 12 - Abraham Cruzvillegas' in Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen
For the twelfth edition of the Sensory Spaces series Abraham Cruzvillegas (Mexico D.F., Mexico 1968) will present a site-specific installation.
Three geodesic dome structures -made with wooden sticks, hemp rope, tarred cardboard, screws and bottle caps- lay over the floor on one side working as speakers for three traditional musicians, performing inside them; lyrics tell the story told by a seven meters plastic water hose about a thirsty woman who cries because her children abandoned her. Her tears flood a district formerly built over a lake, then it becomes a well.
