The Benefit of the Ignorant (Objects)
Collection of 10 found objects, wooden box, newspapers. Installation may vary.
2010




For quite a long time I was collecting objects the function of which I was totally unaware. None of them seemed to be a fragment of another, have a decorative purpose or have any use as a tool. During the time that the collection was private the objects contained the possibility of having more usefulness than they were designed for, by existing only as a "thing". At the moment of showing them though, the piece disappeared as it was and the objects turned into a testimony to an experience which lasted until the first exhibition in February 2009, when the objects were sent from Berlin to Madrid inside a wooden box and wrapped in that day's newpapers.
