The purpose of the museum with this exhibition is the integration of conventional research processes with innovative technologies like 3D printing and digital documentation of the seals. The curatorial goal is to show the visual and aesthetic richness of these artifacts, discuss the forms of use and materials suited to be marked, and about the circulation of their graphic languages. The exhibition establishes a direct contact between publics, artists and researchers, bringing pre-columbian artifacts of high importance to the contemporary context.
