RUBEN MARTIN DE LUCAS
Ruben Martin de Lucas’ [b. 1977, Madrid, Spain] geometric landscapes are born from a few simple gestures: appropriate 100㎡ of space, outline a border, and inhabit it for no more than 24 hours. From parking lots to empty agricultural crops, anonymous segments of land are transformed by these actions into what the artist describes as “ephemeral micro-states.” Here, in these neat and ordered territories with a solitary population of just one, our human efforts to delineate and control the natural world are made stark.[©Sophie Wright/LensCulture]
