State of nature is a series of photographs that record sculptures made with cow manure, mud, ocotillo rods and grass, frequently used as construction elements since primitive times. These components were collected on a farm in the State of Mexico and in the vicinity of the Sonora’s desert.
In order to make a comparison about constructive methods that come from the extraction of the enviroment, im interested in the displacement and economy of the material, which uses the landscape as a raw material on a small scale.
