María Lago sculptures do not shout. They inhabit silence. These are bodies paused in a moment of awareness, figures that do not pose but remember. Made of cement, burlap, iron rods, pigments, and internal wire structures, they resemble living ruins, fragments of humanity resisting oblivion.
In a world where artificial intelligence and digital perfection threaten to erase the gesture, the doubt, the error, Lago’s sculptures rise as monuments of poetic resistance. They are neither protest nor consolation, but testimony: of labor, of emotion, of the embodied spirit.
