One after another, the piece turns everything into a spectacle that never reaches its climax: the space, the movement of the audience, the appearance of the performance crew, and the artefacts of the space. Throughout the piece, the moment of an end is visibly drawing closer, as an enormous clock ticks towards point zero. |
