The work is a
visual exploration of the slow, natural processes of decay and rebirth. Through
erosion, the materiality of crystallization is created drop by drop on a rock
where salt as a body is slowly sculpted and thus time acquires visible form.

In a world that is
constantly changing, this visual approach captures not only a landscape, but
the moment of transition where decay and birth coexist, intertwine and
ultimately become inseparable.
The central volume,
which refers to a primeval landscape, is covered by a transparent, almost
immaterial veil—like petrified water—which simultaneously captures and
liberates the idea of transition: an "intermediate stage", where
nothing is fixed and everything is possible. Through an imperceptible flow of
water that takes place, the crystalline growth on the border of the organic and
the inorganic suggests a materiality that is in constant motion and in constant
negotiation with its environment, functioning as a slow, inevitable act of
nature — a slow breath of time.
The viewer is
invited to wander through this fragile landscape like a traveler of an unknown
world, to listen to the slow breath of the crystals and feel the weight of
waiting, of transformation, of changing matter.
Nothing is static —
everything is in a process of movement, a reminder that even decay gives birth
to new forms of life.
