Artist Statement
Hector Dio Mendoza
Statement
My work is a social commentary on Society. Visions from daily life are points of departure for my work. The concepts I have sued in my art are chosen as they are introduced via mass communication media or through personal experiences. I utilize clay, concrete and rust in combination with found objects as a way of creating personal icons in my work. I incorporate both expressive and realistically sculpted objects with significant gestures to portray metaphor.
Residency Period: November 1, 2004 - January 31, 2005.
Art show with Viviana Paredes and Mark Faigenbaum: January 21 and 22, 2005.
