...ou 8.48.
2019-20
In a field, a figure appears. With her back turned and with no apparent identity, it appears predisposed to fulfill a task where time, routine and repetition become the key elements of it. Whether it's rainy, foggy, windy or sunny, the figure will be there to do it's duty. But, what duty will that be? Carriage? What transport is it about? For what purpose?
Questions like these may arise when seeing this faceless figure perform a possibly useless and absurd function. You hear the sounds that inhabit the place and time goes by and the structure grows without apparent reason and logic. The result is an imperfect circle that invades and breaks with the natural and earthy space of the place. The figure tries to organize the construction, tries to correct it ..., but the attempt is in vain and leaves frustrated.
