cronos meteria

 

cronos materia

Matter carries within it the whisper of years, a palimpsest of silent stories etched upon its surface. Each mark is not wear, but transformation, an imperfect beauty that narrates the flow of existence. Touch and gaze rediscover the echo of the past, the variations in texture like fragments of a journey. To scrutinize these traces is an invitation to reflect on the becoming that shapes matter and our lives, a dynamic beauty that unveils new nuances, a persistent link with a past that lives in the present. In the most intimate and hidden part of this collection, to be explored for they are concealed from immediate view, rest fragments of objects that have traversed time. These silent relics, witnesses of a distant past and a beauty that persists in memory, are integrated into the work as a secret foundation, a subtle dialogue between the evanescence of remembrance and the perennity of the matter that has preserved it. This inclusion is not accidental: it symbolizes the stratification of time, the persistence of the traces of the past in the present, and an invisible bond with the roots of our personal and collective history. The silent relics are integrated into finished pieces in a deliberately rough manner, highlighting the symbol of the stratification of time, the persistence of the traces of the past in the present, and an invisible bond with the roots of our personal and collective history.
