Serge Attukwei Clottey (Ghana, 1985) is invited to cover the façade of the early Modernista building of the Museu Tàpies (designed by Lluís Domènech i Montaner) with a second skin, composed of tesserae made from waste material. To this end, the artist, through the use of yellow containers or galloons (initially used as cooking oil cans and later recycled to collect water), car tires and cork, will compose fragmented canvases revealing his concern for the culture and identity of the city where he was born and lives, and from which he draws the raw material for his creations.
