In physics, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant – it is said to be conserved over time. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it transforms from one form to another.

The work is a Metaphysical reflection on this process and its cyclical phases: Having a purpose / losing the purpose with total detachment / the beauty and calmness of the waiting time / finding a new purpose. The concept is constructed through three Mediterranean Sea symbols: “Almadraba Anchors”: Almadraba is a Pre-roman Labyrinthine fishing art to capture red Tuna in their migrations / “Noray” : Artisan mooring bollards from small fisherman ports / “Ribs”: Ribs of the hull of a Phoenician commerce boat.
