"A strange mesh of time and space" is a reflection around the notion of "aura", in a reference to Walter Benjamin's essay. Here, that notion is portrayed in an irregular web of copper, created freely by hand without a fixed order or rule; the final body will allow specific volumes to come up, as a result of each knot given before. The wax brings awareness and stillness of the complex structure that extends through space, in a place where a dialogue between two opposite light sources talk about volume and its absence.
