Alonso Sierralta
| My training started in painting, that attention soon turned to the realm of sculpture where it has captivated me for the last ten years. My most recent body of work reflects my experience as an immigrant. The work is not meant to be a political commentary, but rather a visual representation of ransplantation using organic forms and natural motifs: pods, seeds, grass, mushrooms, roots, etc. |

The examination of ambiguous, yet familiar forms such as seed-bearing fruits and vegetables, pollen, root systems, etc. are used to create the idea of dispersion and growth symbolizing relocation and prosperity in another land. |
