Compressions that had already experimented with César Baldaccinì in a new realism key, compressions already made of pieces of wood that become the structure of the final work, a "ready-made" structure that follows the teaching of the father of contemporary art Marcel Duchamps and opens the door to the conceptual and abstract where the appearance is only figurative.
