Two clay balls.
One is wrapped in a plastic sheet.
On 7 September 2019, during a ceramic art festival, the artist asked 100 people to manipulate them with their hands.
As they manipulated them he explained that:
“The news and the system often manipulate us directly, with events and factors that fall upon us directly. Very often, however, systems, economies, and news manipulate us without us being able to notice it, without touching us directly“.
