Self-taught and very young, Edgar Zuniga lived in contact with the painting and sculpture workshop thanks to his mother, where he created Christmas and the little steps that later with his father begin to penetrate the religious imaginary, and little to just learn the concepts of form and color, and how there is harmony between them depending on the human figure, using the techniques of the Renaissance.

The work presents a group of iron columns that invites us to reflect on the nature of the human being. Perhaps it is a paradox but the coldest metal becomes the ideal material to talk about humanity. Human beings have seen themselves and the universe as two natures that work into an ostensible balance. The presentation of this group of columns invites you to think about the human essence, the uncontrollable constant that moves every one of our actions. These pillars are the body where these elements live, the frame that holds them, the marrow, the being on which the reason and the non-reason come and go.
