Urban Series by Pepe Calderin

These pieces are based on a study of how to use recycled and other types of unthinkable material to originate complex constructions of what nowadays would be considered as modern buildings.

The main purpose of this work is to exhibit an illustration of how unbelievably humans have substantially valued the materialistic world more than life itself. Each building shows how attached we are to technology and how our only focus is to possess the newest, fastest, and most appealing technology without considering the damage we are causing to the environment and to ourselves.

Not only does this work demonstrate the poor awareness and the influential emphasis we place in society, but his work also provides the history of electronics over the past decade. The entire series is constructed of hundreds of diverse types of recycled material, allowing the artist to provide the history of the fast progression in technology.
