RODRÍGUEZ-MÉNDEZ
Rodríguez-Méndez’s projects entail discrete codes that develop beyond the influence of the exhibition space, and which analyze the materials employed in sculpture, as well as mankind’s essential and physical experience. His practice is situated at the confluence of action and sculpture, interrogating the materials and their mutual influence and energy.
His use of cylinders, peat, oil, sound, word and body, interpreted as ungraspable form and matter, as elemental and absolute geometry, question and alter the constructive process, and the decision to say when a piece is finished.
Rodríguez-Méndez works with the incorporeal aspects of matter, and the openness and latency of his own pieces, in a game of loss and recovery that bears witness to the definitive and essential presence of life and change.
