The artwork titled “Spare Bedroom,” created by the artist Jorge Pardo in 2014, is an installation piece that belongs to the Post-Minimalism art movement. This intricate installation showcases Pardo’s unique approach to blending form, color, and space within an artistic context.
The artwork comprises a large, wedge-shaped wooden structure placed prominently in the center of a gallery space. The exterior is made up of segmented wooden panels and steel framing, characterized by clean lines and a modern aesthetic. One side of the structure features a vividly ornate design with large, multicolored circular cutouts, allowing light to filter through, casting colorful shadows onto the interior space. Inside, the structure houses a minimalistic arrangement suggesting a cozy bedroom, with a simple bed and pink bedding. The overall ambiance, accentuated by the interplay of colored light and geometric forms, creates a harmonious yet intriguing spatial experience, encouraging viewers to explore the functional as a form of art.
