Estensione

A perimeter promises containment and surface, but is immediately denied by an internal fracture. The cut is not a gesture, but a consequence. It is not a symbolic opening, but an active chasm: a line that propagates and modifies the space it crosses.

An unstable separation is generated, a boundary that does not divide clearly but produces tension, slippage, imbalance. Matter is not crossed: it is the border itself that becomes body, that becomes presence. What appears as a line expands, bends, thickens, transforming into a point of friction between inside and outside.

There is no surface to cross, but a space already compromised, already engraved. The border ceases to be a static limit and manifests itself as an evolving phenomenon: a separation that continues to propagate, making distance visible as a permanent condition. iron rods, electrode welding
