"Lapso (Where it ends where it begins)" are two volcanic stones floating in space, each one supporting the other by its force of attraction. Between the two stones there is a gap, a suspended space that interrupts the line drawn by the cords that hold them in the air.

Defying gravity and traditional spatial references, between heaven and earth, north and south, beginning and end, 'Lapso' presents itself as an enigmatic sculpture, in which the artist continues his exploration of the relationships between materials and overlapping realities.

Each edition makes use of unique black volcanic stones.
