"Matter as a field of memory and resistance"
entrance / threshold / passage

The work is configured as a threshold: a symbolic crossing point where matter and space interact, transforming the passage into an experience.

Two vertical elements rise from a square base, defining a passage that imposes itself on the public space. Wood, earth, jute, sheet metal, and iron create a layered and marked material, traversed by projected images that introduce an unstable temporal dimension. Placed at the center of the square, the work is not passed through but rather moved around: the viewer's circular movement activates a continuous relationship between body, matter, and space, transforming the threshold into a perceptual device.
