ALEJANDRO MONTERO BRAVO
SPACE-IOUS
2023
Public commission for Pre-school Tenö in Stockholm, Sweden 2023.
In this project, Alejandro Montero Bravo was asked to create a work that included perforated sheet metal as part of the artwork. They chose to incorporate LED fixtures around some of the illustrated metal sheets they designed. Alejandro opted for light, considering the darker times of the year when children go to preschool, allowing the lights to brighten the start of their day. Their priority was to create a piece that reflects the purpose of the place and influences the public environment, letting children’s imagination and playfulness shape the area. The theme they chose ranged from snack time to emojis, with a connection to space to convey that anything is possible and that there is room for everyone in space.
