When the rain stops

Description

Description

This work of art explores ideas associated with these cycles of nature, the flow of time and the philosophy of existence. Small beads on the surface of four hemispheric installations spinning clockwise or anticlockwise by the forces of gravity run and interact sometimes following the flow of time and sometimes according to their specific rhythms, as if rain were playing music. Silence emerges as the installations become motionless in the gaps between different rhythms. The silence is a siren, a moment for us to look at and reflect on ourselves and our surroundings and to remind ourselves that our future depends on the present.
