eyes sink into stone
black transfers to white
so light, just like light
ephemeral gem
projected on you
only in my eyes
SHORT DESCRIPTION:
Looking at the black slab of the Basalt column for about 30 seconds, a bright white afterimage appears in the eyes.
An ephemeral jewellery - if you project it on a person.
Immaterial - temporal – virtual - without identification – without possession – no display.
For the deceased loved ones.
