Jardín
Diego Rivero’s project consisted of creating a play area within the green areas of the Don Miguel Hidalgo elementary school, in the Agua Zarca community.
Using the clay partition as raw material, different structures were generated that show the diverse scope of this material. The fabric and framework of each of the pieces shows the different possibilities that this element grants. The materials were produced in the community’s clay workshops. Dialogue between the brick-making vocation of the parents and the learning space of the children of the community arose.
