Lot Essay

"Without being visible, the blow is fostered inside a spontaneous and very fragile shape of glass. The meaning of this generated object is in the power of the author's blow that gets trapped (entangled) inside the shape the glass acquires during the execution (performance). This takes place in just one action, without any repetition. Each blow is a unique work."--Roberta Silva
