The work "Untitled No. 1" consists of 20 planting hoes suspended above a line of baseballs, carefully balanced. The planting hoes are traditional tools used by Guatemalan peasants for cultivating their land.

Darío Escobar works across various media, including sculpture, installation, painting, and drawing. His practice often engages with the concept of the readymade, though the objects he employs are always altered in some way, acquiring new meanings through these modifications and their placement within an artistic context.

Recurring themes in Escobar’s work include the intricate relationships between globalization, aesthetics, colonialism, modernism, and consumerism. He investigates the structural power dynamics among these concepts by focusing on the materials, spatial arrangements, and the layered connotations of the chosen objects.
