The young Mexican artist César López started his project Erosion in 2008 from a gestural exercise of rehabilitated houses and their process of deconstruction or demolition. By composing the scene and constructing the decoration of living rooms and bathrooms, he constructed his photographic records. This act reflects on how often we insist on returning to things as they were before, to live in a continuous nostalgia. Erosion is the physical answer to the feeling that memories arouse.
This exposition was part of the collective Latin American exposition Encubrimientos on the International Photography Biennial GRID2012.
