3 brings together works from various stages of the artist's oeuvre, providing a survey into his rich and diverse body of work spanning his first ten years of practice. His works, including new pieces for this exhibition, reexamine social structures, using languages found in mass-media and communication as well as the grammar of post-modern abstraction to re-examine social structures, thereby altering our experience and perception of societal frameworks. In merging elements from various phases of his career, the exhibition creates a conceptual continuity in his practice rather than simply a formal one. Juxtaposing diverse narratives, the works delve into economics, sociology, power systems, and the exploration of gender and dominant models. With works presented across the three gallery spaces, 3, underscores the polymorphic nature of Aceto's work and further expands on his practice, a film occupies the middle room as the heart or engine of the exhibition while the front room contains largely sculptural works and the back room is photographic. Painted walls in yellow act as the exhibition’s color narrative moving the viewer through space, as well as being a reflection of color as an ongoing motif for the artist.
