A figurative work in ‘naïve primitive’ style, it represents a high-rise housing project in rural Cuba, built to accommodate people moving from the cities to the countryside where they can grow their own food. The elevator is a rustic solution to lack of machinery: it is powered by two oxen pulling the cables. His art is about progress and overcoming obstacles.
