Cristóbal Lehyt

Cristóbal Lehyt (born 1973 in Santiago de Chile, lives and works in New York) is known for his large-scale drawings and sculptural installations. He has exhibited widely in the USA and in Latin America. His works explore the relationship of personal and subjective feelings with cultural influences, but also projections and expectations. Born in Chile, the artist is interested in stereotypes about "place," and investigates their local and material circumstances.
