Lara Uro is a visual artist whose practice examines, through the interplay of form and matter, the emergence of new representational frameworks for notions such as disorder,functionality, structure, and space.

 Jenga     
(2026)    

An adaptation of the game through the creation of blocks whose dimensions correspond to the packaging of 13 different antidepressant and anxiolytic medications. The white pieces are made from the pills themselves, combined with a binding agent, following the original formulation. The methacrylate blocks correspond to medications that are not white in colour.

The game of Jenga is based on building a structure upwards, attempting to prevent it from collapsing. Following the same logic, the sculpture is assembled in its entirety but presented already destabilised, allowing it to take on a different form each time.
