About the work
The works displayed resemble toys and games, some interactive, featuring layers of seriousness and irony. The artist establishes a playful relationship with spectators, introducing himself and questioning visitors like in a guessing game. The presence of the artist and his games merge into an integral part of the displayed objects, which Totó has re-signified through his touch, look, and heart.
