Those Who were, Those Who Are, And Those Who Will Be: An Exhibition By Marco Antonio Jimenez Iriarte

While it is true that there was an unexpected crack in space and time (which is not the same as space-time), it is also true for some that this crack was expected, maybe not so soon, but predicted. The changes that have been taking place slowly for a long time were accelerated, and the time between what was predicted or suspected and the time of its manifestation was shortened. These events that were orchestrated by who knows who (the divine) or by whom (the human) are at the margin of those who suffered most deeply from those changes that I will call EL COMUN. The arts and artists were not exempt from this suffering, thus giving the opportunity, as they say here, to RETURN TO THINGS.
Well, what is the THING, or what can I refer to this phrase, RETURN TO THINGS? Many ideas or reflections on the thing concerning art come to mind. As some say now: the work of art is no longer the object, the thing, that to which everything can be attributed synonymously. That thing that can be given the absolute power to try to move worlds or multiverses (a term that is very fashionable and that is coined here in a good way) in man, entering into multiple discourses that by this action leaves the thing aside (also called a work of art in this writing and for this event).
I return to the thing and therefore return to the past, seeing it from a very objective lens, bringing to the contemporary that object, whose handmade creation amused us, contained a playful substance that infected everyone and that brought it to the here and now. somehow it becomes the most technological, modern, current, and other synonyms, such as toys that remain over time.

Bringing that thing to the present in some way affects the updating of the programs in the brain to produce ideas of more current things but that will continue to fulfill the function of entering the mind to try to identify with it. That thing that returns, that thing that returns bringing with it everything that lived in its time and on the way to the here and now, brings a new form or way of rethinking how that thing will be, how we will be before that thing and the circumstances that caused it.
We are here, facing many changes that just some are adapting to, while others simply see it as part of their life experiences without any effect on their daily lives, and that is the false reality before which we see ourselves, a multidimensional mirror… hello Alice, we meet again.
