Muro is a conceptually political work by Mexican artist Bosco Sodi, and features five clay lumbers that were once part of a 26-ft long wall the artist constructed in New York. The wall was formed and dismantled in one day, which coyly references the building of walls at borders, but also the destruction of barriers.
