In this exercise, two people exchange personal objects in silence, each one appears in the space carrying 7 objects to exchange. The instructions are:
1. To group the objects and think of an exchange order, which object is exchanged first, which second and so on.
2. Take the object in your hands and let the object provide the information it contains. for example, I exchanged a jacket that belonged to my father. In this jacket, the most important information is the olfactory because it smells like my father and that smell brings the image of his face.
3. When you have an image of the information that contains the object, it is passed on to the other person.
4. When receiving the object that belongs to another person, it should be noted what type of information has this new object, a memory, a connection, a feeling, etc
and the exercise is repeated until you finish sharing the 7 elements of each person.
The function of objects is canceled by being part of the artistic work. That is, they empty themselves of the meaning and the purpose for which they were made, and "in a movement of" return "the object is filled again with meaning, of that which the artist prints (...)" (Awakeners of the Memory BAHNTJE, 2007, p5)
abandoning its silent life to become disturbing and boisterous. Quality that involves not only the artist or his environment but also the viewer that we could say, is in equal conditions with respect to the readings and meanings that derive from these decontextualizations object of being all part of the context and social environment that the contains; as Marcel Duchamp puts it: "Artists and art are not different from men and everyday objects"
