From Economica:
After the national economic crisis in Argentina in 2001, nearly 50 percent of the population was considered poor. The country has since made huge gains, but fully 25 percent of Argentines are still impoverished. With so many people struggling to make ends meet, Marga Steinwasser says that the average Argentine has become tragically numb to the poor. Steinwasser uses sculpture and mixed media artwork to encourage a second look at this huge but mostly invisible group in Argentina.
