Fernandez arranges many objects into Accumulations. He believes that if items are repeated many times in a display they lose their meaning just like repetition of a word dilutes the meaning of the word. By diluting meaning and displaying large accumulations Fernandez draws attention to consumerism. The exploration of time fascinates Fernandez. He questions its existence.
In Waterloo a piano was smashed and re assembled on a large panel. Breaking and smashing objects offers the viewer possibility and insight into new ideas. Red colored background emphasizes the violence of destruction.
