Aurora Cid | Curated by BURN-IN
The current, curated BURN-IN collection Arbitrium of the Tides with works by Spanish artist Aurora CID - a must for anyone who not only appreciates geometry and minimalism, but celebrates them with real passion.
Aurora CID's large-format multi-parts function like a precise structure: individual elements, clearly defined, in an overall composition that is more than the sum of its parts. This is precisely where the pull lies. The works are constructed - and yet they create movement. The eye follows edges, shifts, curves; it reads staticity, rhythm and space.
The title sets the frame: Tides stand for cycles that are bigger than us - recurrence, rhythm, consistency. Arbitrium brings in the human dimension: decision, consideration, responsibility. Taken together, this becomes a topical statement: nature is not a backdrop. Nature sets the pace. And our decisions influence this rhythm - part by part.
The fact that these pictorial bodies are created on Kraft (corrugated cardboard) sharpens the attitude: a material from everyday life that suddenly acquires dignity - and brings its own topography with it. The fine wave structure and the grain always remain perceptible as a delicate relief; it interacts with color, gradients create depth. In this way, the GreenART bridge can be experienced concretely, without a bold appeal: cycles are not illustratively asserted, they become materially tangible.
The sculptures take this logic a step further. What vibrates between surface and space in the multipart pieces becomes physical here: edge becomes volume, curve becomes presence, balance becomes a visible state. Here, too, every placement has weight - and every shift changes the whole. Arbitrium of the Tides thus becomes a work about scope for action: order as attitude, connectedness as structure, the future as something that emerges - in the rhythm of the tides, with our Arbitrium.
