The third exhibition of 2017 at auroras brought together sculptures by different artists that transform everyday objects: towels, coins, tents, etc. There is a certain ritual in this feat, where the uniqueness of each material reveals itself pure and simple, challenging the commonplace of things. Their forms subtract any ordinary consideration and transfigure them into planet-objects, radiating their own affective orbits.

The show also included a series of sculptures by Claudio Cretti. In this series of works, form is constructed from the relationship of different materials, creating a field of variable potencies – an architecture that involves both technical and organic sensibilities of matter.
