Waiting for Jerry was originally an installation ‘built as a gift’ for his young daughter Lucia, with whom Juan Muñz (1953-2001) had spent hours watching the cartoon “Tom and Jerry”; Lucia had unconditionally taken the side of the mouse.
A small dark room save for Jerry’s hole that was carved out of the baseboard molding and illuminated from the other side, Waiting for Jerry put the viewers ostensibly inside Jerry’s hideaway as Tom and Jerry battled it out just beyond the artificial glow of the mouse’s doorway; the soundtrack of one of the “Tom and Jerry” shows could be heard, the raucous screeching of the endless chase between the cat and the mouse. Any second Jerry would make his appearance, the viewers just had to wait.
This is a rare sticker picturing the mouse hole and be affixed on the wall at floor level.
