Iron, projector, slide with the word "dissolvenza"

15.4 x 11.0 x 9.4 (吋)
The work relates to the passage of time.
Fade-out is concretised by means of an iron block weighing around 200 kilos which through oxidation is destined to disappear.
The iron dimension of the work, though it is fading-out, permits the desire for a prolonged existence.
