The work consists of a flying ladder, a sort of ladder, a tool used in the Navy with the aim of allowing the embarkation and disembarkation of people in extraordinary circumstances.
 Upon closer inspection, we will notice that thousands of pins are stuck in the grips that allow you to go up and down the ladder, making it essentially impossible, or at least extremely risky and difficult, to use.
The ropes descend dizzily. They are 13 meters long, precisely to represent the length of time, while the pins indicate the obstacles that women will have to face to achieve the desired gender equality.
In the performative action, the involvement of the public is amplified by the participation of men, who may be asked, together with the women, to extract the pins to facilitate climbing the ladder.
