Ernesto Oroza is a Cuban-born artist, designer, and writer who currently lives and works in Aventura, Florida. His work primarily addresses contemporary media culture as well as conceptual design and architecture, including issues of improvised structures and objects retooled for new functions. Recent projects, Architecture of Necessity and Objects of Necessity, investigate the homespun, Frankenstein-like objects and architecture made by Cuban citizens in order to facilitate their survival. Architecture of Necessity is currently being shown at the Institute of Visual Arts (INOVA) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
