Pie Torcido

Three dark forms stand on stone plinths in a room whose checked floor seems to stretch beyond the panel. Their narrow silhouettes recall the turned feet of La Ciguapa, a figure whose footprints lead those who follow her in the wrong direction. By placing these forms in an almost domestic interior, the work brings folklore into the house. The stone holds them still, but their shadows suggest they might have just arrived—or be about to leave.
