Era

In an impressive wooden structure, stones move up and down. They hang from wires that spin up and down along a mechanical wheel. Like a swarm, they go around ERA, a three-meter tall figure.
Era emerges from the past present and future.
Like a warrior for time
A guardian of our memories
Or does Era keep our future dreams hidden in a bag?
In the dark they grow on for later

The stones are counting down

Each time a new language
From yonder to here
From then to now

Era is a large kinetic installation that represents time like a clock or countdown machine within a 'time logic' all its own. Like a pause button, ERA aims to literally make us pause for a moment.
Taking time to watch time pass.
