Rock crystal creates energy, if held in the hands and traversed by a copper wire
LABORATORY TRUTHS
Here materials are tempered in a magic, allusive process, that of alchemy, which attempts to seize the intelligence of matter.
Two copper wires in one hand signify the electricity of a crystal subjected to pressure.
Energy carves its actions and molds its gestures.
Ordered time reveals itself in the structure of crystals, as a series of moments used and connected by the same rhythms.
