Casa Cueva, a 1954 modernist home built inside a lava cave in Mexico City, was largely destroyed after its owners sold it in 1969. At Museo Jumex, Álvaro Urbano revives it with painted metal plants that hover in mid-air, each copied from a specimen in Helen Fowler O'Gorman's 1961 book on Mexican flowering trees.
