Nushi in the land of the lilliputians...

9:58 a.m.

For the entrance of the Colección Fortabat Museum, artist Nushi Muntaaabski (Buenos Aires, 1963) created a gigantic sculpture of a woman, measuring 9 mts long and 2 mts wide.

Materials: Sculpted polystyrene covered with adhesive and pieces of ceramics
Measures: 900 x 200 aprox
The title of the artwork is an adaptation of "Gulliver's travels": the story of the giant that, in spite of his size, feels fragile and fervently wants to awake from his nightmare.

Marcelo Pacheco explains that, in her works, Nushi always seems to smile. However, the climates she creates are dense, her remarks are sharp and her opinion of the world is deep.

The fragmented woman lies on the entrance of the Museum. Her size is shocking, as also the materials used and the many cuts in her body, which pretend to show the visitors what we are made of. An approach to femenine nude in Contemporary Art, quite different to those academic works that marked the 19th Century.
