Abraham Cruzvillegas explains how his practice of autoconstrucción evolved from the contradictory and precarious elements of life which give the city a new shape every day. The city and environment in which an artist lives and works naturally influences their ideas, their practice and their form.
Artist Cities is a new series co-produced with The Guardian we explore the native or adopted cities of a range of major international artists. We learn how each artist has identified and developed a relationship with the landscape and city they call home and how such connections materialise in their work.
