Parallel to the X Sculpture Symposium of the capital, held in 2018, and in the same venue where the six works of the competition came to light, artist Edgardo Junco erected this mural sculpture, El ojo vigilante de la barbarie humana, crafted entirely from recycled materials donated by the sponsoring company Martínez Cano. Unlike the other artists, who previously knew what materials they would use and, broadly speaking, what forms they would give them, the Argentine sculptor had to wait to discover what he would work with in order to imagine what he would compose. And the result was this sculpture charged with social criticism, about a problem that, unfortunately, is the order of the day: the contamination of the seas. An eye sheds bleeding tears before the destruction we are causing with each piece of waste that reaches the waters. Caring for the oceans is a necessity of which we are not aware, because every day we continue dumping garbage and waste into the waters as if it would never have consequences for the environment; that environment of which we are as much a part as other living beings and whose destruction will affect us to the same degree, sooner or later. The only earth we have is this one. And the earth is also the seas that compose it. Either we understand this or we will end up crying blood, as Junco prophesies in his work.
