ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Cosmoselector's collection of geological samples of exoplanets. Each sculpture represents a geophysical formation of a planet outside the solar system. Sample collected on the planet: "PROXIMA CEN b" Constellation: CENTAURUS Ascension: 14h 29m 42s - Declination: -62 ° 40 ’46” Stellar distance: 4.23 light years. Rocky, arid, gray, monochrome planet. However, the first steps raised a very thin layer of opaque dust under which rhomboid formations of strident colors have been found. What is this? A cross section has been removed from the outer region of what appears to be an ancient cliff. Upon analysis it has been discovered that each color belongs to a chemical element with such a high level of purity that its origin is unlikely to be natural. Order, shape, composition that make me suspect an artificial genesis.

Cosmoselector (Madrid, 1984) is a young interdisciplinary and eclectic artist whose work represents a journey looking for the beauty trapped within the sedimentary geology that nature draws in the today known to science exoplanets. The discovery of the “unexpected” has always been a powerful catalyst for human creation and improvement. Indeed, our worldview has been shaken many times by the encounters with the impossible. That is why Cosmoselector`s artistic production are samples, fragments of distant landscapes of alien worlds. Impossible views of something still unobservable but already achievable by human imagination and desire. The works that compose this series represent a selection of geological samples collected during an artistic imaginary trip across the last frontier –the last human challenge- where everything is possible: space. The artist challenges the observer to act as a space explorer or natural scientist, forcing him to provide a sense and meaning to the pieces he is facing. It will be the observer's task to decide which phenomenon produced them. The observer must ask to himself if whether the object in front of us is the result of nature, the creation of an intelligence, or the result of something way more complicated than that.
