About the work:
It's all about the chaos of the city, catalyzed by globalization and technological evolution. "Moving forward! Towards the sky!"
"Mirrors all over
sparkling in between the blocks
along the long trails of people
the stream of humans
the chain of thoughts
the vigorous string played by the mob is sounding forward
MOVING TOWARDS THE SKY!"
