Indeed, the artists go to the world of objects, or perhaps it is the world of paramnesia. But the artists have made their own objects, although often with similarities or references creating a kind of analogy with regards to what have been made in the past. Here they easily combine the real with the imaginary. Is it not true, then, that what they actually want to discover is some sort of "beauty" out of the traumatic events in the world, in the real?
