Man in The Mountain
Californian artist John K. Melvin was impressed by Puerto Rico’s geography; being the smallest island of the Great Antilles, Puerto Rico has an impressive variety of landscapes, from clear water beaches, to caverns and dry forests regions, to mountains covered by rain forests. Inspired by this, the artist created a sculpture based on the abstraction of geographical elements that traps a man in its center. As mankind is a central piece of the changes the planet is suffering, the artist aims to make us ask ourselves our part in these changes.
