A piece of cut cloth is pinned down by a stone. The stone’s weight etches a large crease in the shape of an inverted triangle into the cloth. This simple expression conveys the force of gravity, which is not visible to the naked eye. The work, created out of ordinary materials, calls to mind principles related to the cosmos and the Earth.
