Pablo Rasgado — Arquitectura Desdoblada (LACMA)
Pablo Rasgado

Arquitectura Desdoblada (LACMA)

Rasgado's *Arquitectura Desdoblada (LACMA)* presents fragments of drywall harvested directly from the walls of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, recontextualized as painted panels. The work collapses the boundary between architecture and artwork, transforming the institutional structure itself into raw material. In doing so, Rasgado exposes the hidden layers and physical history embedded within the museum's own walls.
