This artwork presents a surreal and evocative scene, capturing a figure immersed in an ambiguous setting. Set against a vibrant pink backdrop, a person crouches within a transparent container, creating an intriguing contrast between their exposed limbs and the draped blue fabric over their head. The figure holds a mass of long, flowing blonde hair, cascading dramatically outside the vessel. The juxtaposition of the natural human form against synthetic elements like the hair and plastic, along with the bold color palette, underscores themes of identity, transformation, and confinement. The composition's abstractness invites viewers to explore interpretations of vulnerability and self-expression. This piece challenges traditional portraiture, inviting contemplation on the fluid nature of identity and the boundaries between reality and artifice.
"La Piedra Sustituta" Series Showing a body that is hidden is the aesthetic apology for the insane judgment that the artist himself has taken as an excuse for not being "pointed at" or rather as self-pointing. The stone is taken by the body that is unprotected as a metaphor for the weakness that seeks protection, and the body is taken by the stone as a consequence of an insecure state, how can a stone take a body? If this is the one that "institutionally" does it.

Presentation
Jose Sierra (b. 1991 in Cartagena de Indias, Colombia) obtained his Master in Fine Arts from the University Institute of Fine Arts and Science of Bolivar (UNIBAC) in 2012 with a body of work titled Anti-Personnel Grids, which has since exhibited in different locales of Colombia. Shortly after, he was commissioned by the Colombian Ministry of Culture alongside the artist collective Si Nos Pagan Boys to participate in an urban art exposition titled, La Muerte Se Va de Vacaciones (Death is Going on Vacation) that was executed as a reaction to the traditionalism of Cartagena.
In 2014, he exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Cartagena and in La Presentacion Casa Museo Arte y Cultura. He then exhibited in the Cultural Center Ciudad Movil in 2016 with a body of work created in collaboration with the Colombian photographer, Camo. In the same year, he was nominated for the International Luxembourg Art Prize for his recent work Self-Portrait. Sierra's ongoing body of work continues to be based around his self-representation from which he addresses a homoerotic gaze through the configuration of abject staged environments that he merges himself within as “a subject of aesthetic creation."
