Brazo de obrero atravesando el techo de una sala de arte desde una vivienda
A worker's arm pierces through the ceiling of an art gallery from the residence above, captured in a stark chromogenic print that confronts the invisible labor and class divisions embedded within institutional art spaces. Sierra's intervention forces a visceral, physical encounter between the domestic and the cultural, the exploited and the privileged. The work exemplifies the artist's unflinching engagement with economic inequality, reducing the human body to a transactional tool that disrupts the pristine white cube from below.
