Description: Sebastián Mejía (Lima, 1982) portrays the materiality of contemporary cities through black and white photographs of water infiltration and humidity related problems in diverse buildings and floors. Mejia was born in Peru and lives and works in Santiago, Chile. He grew up in Colombia and studied photography at the School of Visual Arts in NY. He exhibited his work in the Photographer's Gallery in London, Foundation Cartier in Paris and the Museum of Contemporary Art of Chile among others. "Without a doubt, the photographer knew that something was happening underground. Those dry cracks and humid stains, about to fade, have remained to tell us something. Grass covers them but cannot hide them. Neutral gray cement rises from below, allowing us to see it from here." -Right Flap.
