Sophia's shape comes from two intersecting spheres. The filling, following an ideal subtraction of the three structures, is eliminated. Therefore, only the maximum perimeters of the two spheres survive, which generate a play of full and empty spaces. The continuous lines suggest a perpetual motion, an infinite loop, similar to Heraclitus' theory of time: everything flows, nothing is equal to itself but everything changes with the passage of time. Time is one of the fundamental themes of the pictorial exhibition: the viewer is immersed in a world made of sinuous and circular forms, unreal but tangible, because it is extremely universal and free from any time and place.
