ABOUT

EFE is an artist based between the Dominican Republic and New York whose practice spans across sculpture, architecture and design to reflect collectivity and struggle at the Bottom.

In view are works created using salvaged objects and other tropes of marginalized environments, which amplify the vernacular of his underprivileged focus, and highlight the artist’s regional investment in the Caribbean (native grounds).

Examples include: a new commission (Cut & Shut, 2023) for New York-based gallery, Amanita; a site-specific sculpture (House on a Budget, 2023) for Proyecto Pikaro’s latest exhibition in Mexico City; and a proposal (Landfall, 2022) for Miami Art Basel, which sought to forewarn on the increasing number of tropical storms in the Greater Antilles, as well as Florida, and the need for adaptive infrastructure.
