Ramón Espantaleón

Spanish artist Ramón Espantaleón lived in NYC during the World Trade Center attacks and it has influenced his work. He has created a series of pieces that focus on the buildings of NYC. Beginning with clay, he created over 30,000 units representing actual building heights, which were cast to create molds that could be used to reproduce sections in epoxy resin and polyurethane.
