escogencia
Desde niño estuve involucrado en el proceso creativo artística porque para mi padre no había distinción entre hogar y taller, siempre fueron la misma cosa. Durante mi adolescencia en París, en paralelo a mis estudios, trabajaba como su ayudante en la elaboración de útiles y máquinas que inventaba para fabricar sus obras. Cada máquina constituía un desafío que nos llevaba a investigar sobre diseño, escogencia y adecuación de materiales. Las obras de mi padre son sistemáticas, programadas con una lógica concebida mucho antes de la masificación del ordenador.
What I am seeing on the web has to do with choice (which makes sense: escoger), but I don't understand it in this context.
Thanks

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

...seem to be making blatant and, the artist admits, rather controversial political statements, in part through his choice of materials.

Perhaps I didn't make it clear that it's "escogencia de materiales".

selectability (of materials)
Methinks Helena C. is closer to the mark with suitability, notably an 'amenability to selection', except 'adecuación' > suitability or fitness immediately follows the word in point.
PS the first web ref. *IS* - whether laterally or tangentially - relevant to the question.
This selection process can be characterised by application prerequisites, *potential materials*, physical principles, and selection.
