There are several things that impress me in the art of Elena del Rivero: the vision of monumental accomplished through mundane materials, the mix of diaphanous and monumental accomplished by some kind of surrendering to the hazard of space, and the passion she puts in searching a meaning in each piece of shabby paper used in her works. I would say that the works of Elena del Rivero are holistic: each small component contains the whole.

Here is a work by Elena del Rivero that is hosted at MoMA: Unfinished Letter to a Young Daughter.
