01 / A drawing, put to use
A small gesture.
An everyday place.
An ordinary roll becomes the centre of a small, open construction. Ribbon Break exposes its simple support rather than disguising it: two uneven walls, a wooden line, and the circle between them. Scratched-looking marks are conceived as filled recesses in the mineral skin. The contrast between reusable weight and a strip that is gradually used up gives the object its quiet sense of time.
