Alexandre Matos 1

For his most recent work, Alexandre Matos has been searching for blocks of the Little Engineer/Little Architect toys from the 60s and 70s. The artist appropriates the pieces and treats them as relics of the past to create his sculptures and paintings. The blocks activate our affective memory as the toy was (and still is) part of the childhood of many generations. Who has never imagined the house of their dreams (similar to a castle), or built incredible cities?
