The main focus of the installation is the 1,288 floor tiles that were made by melting down the firearms that were turned in by the now-defunct FARC guerrilla group after the signing of the Colombian peace agreement in 2016.

[2] Salcedo has described that the installation as a countermonument as it does not pay tribute to any of the involved parties, does not intent to express beauty nor build a triumphalist narrative.

[3] As part of the agreement between the Government of Colombia and the now-defunct FARC, both parties agreed to the creation of monuments using the firearms that were turned in by guerrilla group.

One of the monuments, Kusikawsay by Mario Opazo, was agreed for the Headquarters of the United Nations in New York City and the other, Fragmentos, was established in Bogotá, Colombia's capital.

[5] Housed amongst the ruins of a once abandoned colonial-era house in La Candelaria locality, of Bogotá, Colombia, Fragmentos is a memorial, art gallery, and a site-specific art installation whose main focus is the floor tiles that were made using the firearms that the FARC-EP guerrilla group rendered post the signing of the peace agreement with the Government of Colombia.
