Great Cascade

FundaciĂł Pilar i Joan MirĂł, Palma, 1996

This work consists of a raised wooden podium from which sand “cascades”. The sand is deposited on three different levels in three different phases, as it slides from one level to the next until it reaches the ground. The construction is surrounded by large iron “fruit bowls”, which lose the sand through previously perforated holes which, when opened, pour the sand accumulates at the feet of the bowls.
