If the plastic quality of the abandoned objects results from external forces that are previous to the artist\u2019s interventions, the new items she includes in her compositions are worked out to acquire a tactile and bodily quality that recreates the physical effect of the passage of time and of memories that never really existed. Through thoughtful combinations and juxtapositions, Mauricio creates configurations that amplify the \u201cvibrations\u201d of each one of the parts. Intensifying the formal limits of the elements and consequently reworking their subjectivity, in order to allow for the emergence of other narratives that are inherent to them but which remain dormant under the banality of their \u201cuse\u201d.\r\n\r\nThis type of process is evident in the work that Mariana Mauricio develops from one of the structuring elements of the exhibition; an ironing board she rescued from an alley in London. The artist deconstructed its layers of fabric and foam, uncovering the stains and evidences that narrated its domestic story. When dissecting this element, she came across with two distinct types of fingerprints. On the one hand, the rubbing stains from the hot iron over the fabric, and, on the other, the orthogonal meshes given by the creases of the cloth\u2019s folding which drew a Cartesian grid over the soft matter. The artist explores the confrontation between the abstract and orderly character of this grid and the organic and visceral forms that were accidentally emblazoned on these materials. Thus, the grid, the symbolic framework that organizes our time-space, is manually replicated by Mariana from the process of folding and ironing other fabrics. A process which generates a loop that connects the imprints created during the \u201cuseful life\u201d of these found materials and the \u201cartistic action\u201d that replicates them, echoing the mundane operation that originated them in an earlier moment.\r\n\r\nBy emphasizing contradictory relations through compositions of immanent tension, the artist re-signifies the domestic lexicon making it a gateway to other important subtexts, such as the history of feminism, household oppression, the dubious space of sexuality, among others. While making them tangible through the exhibition\u2019s experience.\r\n\r\nAbout the artist:\r\n\r\nMariana Mauricio. (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 1983.
