About the Artwork
"Although the representation of the house in this print is not abstract, it isn't completely naturalistic either. Emilio Sánchez reduced the house to its geometric building blocks: triangles and rectangles.
In an interview about his work, Sánchez discussed his interest in houses like the one in this print: ""I am struck by the patterns in the little houses. They’re usually scattered around these narrow streets in the shantytowns and they really have some marvelous patterns and as I said when the sun is turned on it’s absolutely incredible.""*
