Claudia Fontes

Foreigners

Claudia Fontes (b. 1964, Buenos Aires, Argentina) lives and works in Brighton, England. Foreigners depicts three figures in the act of embracing each other. The sculpture is made of underwater concrete, with holes and pores that can function as habitat for local birds during the exhibition, and, after the exhibition, as oyster habitat in the waters of the Hudson River.
