He who grasps geometry is able to understand everything in this world.
Characteristics and Vita
The artist Aurora CID was born in 1950 in Córdoba, Spain. She convinced in numerous solo and group exhibitions in Spain, Belgium, Germany and Italy. Her works can be found in regional museums and institutions in Ciudad Real and Córdoba and in prestigious collections (Antonio Saura Foundation, Colección Jesús Bárcenas, J.C. de Castilla la Mancha). During her long career, CID has received many awards. BURN-IN first presented CID in the solo exhibition Geometric flow - corners, waves and edges in September 2019.
The artist lives and works in Valdepeñas (Ciudad Real), circa two hours drive south of Madrid.

Why BURN-IN
BURN-IN met Aurora CID at Artfair Málaga 2017, visited the artist in her studio in Valdepeñas 2018 and was so enthusiastic about her interdisciplinary approach, in which she interwove nature, mathematics and art, that they conceived the exhibition Geometric flow as part of the BURN-IN GreenART exhibition series.
CID came from architectural geometry to natural geometry, affirmed for itself the transition from computational geometry to random geometry and unexpectedly chose not the digital approach, but folds manually, always starting from a point, to ultimately create bodies that reach into infinity.
The artist thus oscillates between the geometry in architecture and the geometry of nature, playing with sameness and difference, calculation and chance, continuity and variation, dynamics and tension, creating a unique mood that you can not escape.
Sculptural extraction
Kraft. This sculptural extraction also creates in her painting an enormous plastic quality, which is uniquely implemented by the highly rare carrier material Kraft (corrugated cardboard) and perfectly staged with varnish. Significant also the philosophical titles: When the waves were not yet curved (huge green díptych), Convergences (smaller red díptych | agreement, convergence), the Labyrinth, the Opus cycle, the House of the Statue, the Symphony series - all works that convince through the corners, curves and edges.
The Fundación Antonio Saura from Cuenca (Spain) dedicated an extensive catalog to CID. BURN-IN is very proud to be able to present works from it exclusively and for the first time in Austria. From 2020 BURN-IN represents the Spanish artist exclusively in the DACH region.
Donation to the Instituto Cervantes | Education in Change. Aurora CID surprised BURN-IN with a generous donation to the Spanish Cultural Institute in Vienna. With Durante la ensoñación todo es posible | While dreaming everything is possible (mixed media oil, varnish, resin | Kraft | 150 x 150 cm) she describes a wonderful scene from Miguel de Cervantes work, in which Don Quixote de la Mancha, together with his servant Sancho Panza, floats through the air on the wooden horse Clavileño dreaming, bravely fighting windmills. A masterpiece that she created on the occasion of the 400th anniversary of Don Quixote II (1615). With it, CID proved what a high value education has for her, perfectly merging the historical with the modern.
CID's incomparable works testify to her great sensitivity towards nature and architecture, her holistic approach to processes. Sustainability plays a crucial role - perfect for the BURN-IN GreenART Focus and the BURN-IN portfolio. Already in the inaugural exhibition at Gerngross in February 2020 one presents, on one of the newly created artist islands, works of the Spanish exceptional artist and invites to an unforgettable art time-out in the boutique gallery.

Statement
Pictorial purpose, drawing mediation, and sculptural consciousness converge in Aurora CID's search for a tangential language with fractal modes that oscillate between the geometry of architecture and the geometry of nature. Through the use of dimensionless repetitions, chromatic antitheses, formal juxtapositions, or the use of the support as an active element, a coherent reflection on the spatio-temporal qualities of each creation is triggered. The games between sameness and difference, calculation and chance, continuity and variation, dynamism and stillness generate perceptual tensions that no viewer can escape.
