The violence, trauma and sudden loss due to a motorway accident, resulting in the death of a loved one, is processed by means of a repetitive ritual of visiting the memorial site and collecting the earth which has become sacred at this place.
The work is a light box that hangs on the wall. It has small transparent sample bottles that make up the surface of the work. Some bottle have earth and resin and the others have bone and resin in them.
