"Como morre o sábio, assim morre o tolo!" Installation

This installation belongs to the series "Nothing New Under The Sky?" and it was carried out, with multiple sets (700) of aluminum wire placed on the wall of the exhibition room. At some point I needed to act out death; the end of a cycle and the passage to another, unknown. Then came the idea of ​​creating a “portal” in the shape of a large circle on the wall with hairs. This situation seemed interesting to me since it assumed that there was something invisible, but alive, inside the wall in such a way that its outgrowths became visible in contact with the air. Initially I had foreseen that the placement of the "hairs" would be done individually, one by one, which would also evoke a situation of halo or fog that covered the passage, but then I realize, that such construction was not possible given the short time of assembly of available (1 day). So I chose to create sets of 15 wires, which I placed on the wall after making the respective holes. The layout of the units was carried out in order to completely close the center of the circle, decreasing in density to its limits.
