I've been rather obsessed with this mans health & safety worrying sculptures since coming across his work in Phaidons Younger Than Jesus* book. I particularly like his untitled pieces as shown above, unfathomable domestic constructions that threaten to collapse. I'm not sure wether these sculptures are genuinely the product of a nervous and precarious balancing act or if Alejandro employs some sort of cunningly hidden support structure, but despite having never actually seen said pieces I get a real feeling of disbelief and danger just looking at these photographs.
* This book is an appropiation junkies wet dream. I'll certainly be featuring some of the artists on this blog in the near future.
