Relatos Habituales  (Common Stories) is a collaboration between Joya Brava, the Chilean Contemporary Jewellery Association and Jorge Manilla, the Mexican-Belgian renowned artist and jeweler who worked with us as a tutor for each artist.

Relatos Habituales  (Common Stories) is a proposal of personal subjectivities, where the artists cross sensibility and materials, which talk about the ordinary, being everything that surrounds everyday life. Through the artworks, all the invisibility of the common is raised to visibility, in a poetic dimension.

Domestic aesthetics, home ornamentation, ageing of materials, patches, precarious repairs and all class of ingenious solutions, which transform and keep using those objects of everyday life.

This exhibition has a deeply Latin American presence in the archipelago of these aesthetics, which tells its own story in a material and not literal way.
