Jiménez Deredia is an internationally acclaimed Costa Rican sculptor, whose works are displayed throughout the San Jose city center for an extended period of time this year. Here are some images I’ve collected over the past couple of months. I listened to various The Cure albums while I created this post, so lyrics from the “Disintegration” album and others, are used to provide the captions. It’s a “mood thing.”

“it’s just the way i smile,” you said.

than to feel you deep in my heart.

if only i could fill my heart with love.




and make like I just wasn’t there.

and stay like that for quite a while.

yesterday i got so old, it made me want to cry.

you hold me hypnotized. i’m mesmerized.

you, strange as angels dancing in the deepest oceans.
twisting in the water. you’re just like a dream.

i don’t want what i was, i had a change of head.

i don’t want what i did, i had a change of tense.

so delicate.


Absolutely INCREDIBLE and amazing and gorgeous. And then some.
you should feel the vibe these pieces accentuate in the city. you are right. “incredible, amazing, and gorgeous.” 🙂
Outstanding work, absolutely brilliant.
