    O minimalismo é uma referência para López, que prefere, entretanto, opor à monumentalidade do movimento norte-americano a escala mais humana de objetos criados pelo concretismo e neoconcretismo brasileiros. Uma homenagem a este último está na obra Monstera (2021), uma abstração dobrável e manipulável, da planta Monstera Deliciosa da família Araceae, que cresce no pátio da casa do artista en Bogotá e que o visitante poderia vestir, como um parangolé, ou habitar como o Abrigo Poético, de Lygia Clark. -- Minimalism is a reference for López, who prefers, however, to oppose the monumentality of the North American movement with the more human scale of objects created by Brazilian concretism and neo-concretism. A tribute to the latter is in the work Monstera (2021), a foldable and manipulable abstraction of the Monstera Deliciosa plant from Araceae family, which grows in the courtyard of the artist's house in Bogotá, and that the visitor could wear like a parangolé, or inhabit like Lygia Clark's Poetic Shelter.
