Artwork description

This work evokes the technical movements of dance. The assembly of beams and steel cables, visible from the exterior but also in the lobby, seems unstable. Inside, a suspended tube goes through the ceiling to the upper floor where it is connected to a set of elements: a compass for controlling complex movements and a glass plate resting on a bronze leg.
