Vngravity, D.R.E.A.M.H.O.U.S.E.
D.R.E.A.M.H.O.U.S.E. is a 3D rendering of the now infamous Casa Blanca (or white house), a $7 million mansion built by a government contractor for Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto and his family. Upon investigation, it exposed a net of corruption and conflicts of interest between the president and elements affiliated with his party, spurring widespread umbrage among the public, who called for the Peña Nieto’s resignation. Created by a team of Mexico City-based visual artists dubbed Vngravity—comprised of Salvador Loza, Alfredo Martínez, and Gibrann Morgado—the work essentially takes what is widely considered to be one of the most shameful incidents of the current president’s administration and re-purposes it as a space to both present and function as, albeit virtually, art.
