Baltazar TORRES’ small-format works deal with social and political matters and problems. He creates small worlds made of wood and lead that show hostile urban environments. Additionally, the viewer himself becomes part of the work through integrated mirrors. The pieces invite you to look closely to perceive every small detail. He meditates about themes like urbanization, social impoverishment and isolation. Baltazar TORRES’ works are displayed at several collections all over the world, for example in the Institut Valencia d’Art Modern or in the Fundación Ars Teor Etica in Costa Rica.
