The metal plates were hand-punched and the fabric was hand-covered. (cover materials: linen, spelter (a copper and nickel alloy))

Original size 2993x1522

Two materials were deliberately chosen for the cover: natural linen fabric and metal (specifically copper and nickel).

This selection is driven not only by the symbolic component of the tactile aspect but also by the need to incorporate elements of handcraft into the work.
