Mexico-born artist, photographer, videographer and performance artist, Teresa Margolles, today unveiled her sculpture for London’s Fourth Plinth.
Mil Veces un Instante (A Thousand Times in an Instant) is the 15th artwork to be installed on the Fourth Plinth since Mark Wallinger’s Ecce Homo in 1999. Created of plaster casts of the faces of 726 trans, non-binary, and gender non-conforming people, the work is a tribute to Margolles’ friend, a transgender woman named Karla murdered in Mexico in 2015.
