Description:

Chinese's porcelains from Christie's auction are submitted to a pattern that translates the estimate price to cm. It produces a dilatation and contraction process to its horizontal coordinate according to surpasses or depreciates the auction average price.
This operation is translating toward cutting system for metal letters (billboards), which are used by companies or shops.
The pieces are flat (2mm) and are separating of the wall creating an illusory 3 dimensions depth.
Some porcelains take several meters and others almost dissolve. In some point of the presentation space -and like a baroque exercise of anamorphous-, they are possible to perceive their original dimension.
In the surfaces of some pieces there are small drawings from urban icons (black ink).

Enchanted landscape -by means of translations and displacements- interrogates the values of market and their authority in the art universe.
