Title: Metastasis
Artist: Veronica Huacuja
Media: Oil on paper
Dimensions: 30 x 42 x 0.1 cm

Year: 2003

Metastasis is “The spread of cancer cells from the place where they first formed to another part of the body.” * 

The development of the illness seen through technical procedures provides me of initial sources to reinterpret this phenomenon and to transpose it into art. 

So, “Metastasis” is an artwork that explores the frailty of the human conditions. I propose this work as a “human landscape”, a deteriorated one.
