11/06/18 - A cotton bag hangs from the ceiling full of Sumi ink and water. Under it a zinc pool, covered with white fabric, holds a heavy wooden ball constantly balancing. Little by little the bag drips over the ball, drawing a dark circle on the fabric.

All this composition is surrounded by 16 meters of vinyl covered in graphite which reaches the wall and goes up. The dripping pretends to symbolize the inevitable passing of time, while the spot on the fabric represents immobility.
