Statement

De Loayza uses the collection as its main work process: metal mesh, bricks, iron, cement and gravel. His pieces are installed together, forming an urban and natural "garden", which also alludes to cultural diversity, the permanence of the ancestral. His main inspiration is Peru and its tangible and intangible territory, its fragility and power.
