Italian term

è declinato attraverso

Italian to English Art/Literary Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting
I am not sure how to translate this in the context of the sentence transcribed below. I guess it means something along the lines of "focuses on" or "consists of" ?

Context: description of an art exhibition
Sentence; "Il ciclo di lavori selezionato per l’evento, tra cui anche alcune tavole di "La realtà è strabica" è declinato attraverso fogli, fogliettini anche piccoli ed è esposto in uno spazio intimo e particolare di XXX dando modo così al visitatore di concentrarsi su quel focus preciso che ha per oggetto la mostra."

The works take the form of himmeli (charms originally used to help ensure a good harvest), a cart for transporting milk from a central point in the village, a tractor wheel, the negative space created by the railing and balustrades of the bridge over the village stream, and a set of old window frames made in the traditional style, to be suspended over a field close to the Ängeslevä road.
