Time Is Money

Time is Money
Technique: Yellow gold-plated metal wires, acrylic box with gold mirrors on the sides.
Dimensions: 80 x 26 x 118 cm
Year: 2025

The piece is constructed from a sphere formed by yellow gold-plated metal wires, extended linearly within an acrylic box. From this base, seven pieces emerge, joined by invisible tensions: threads that embrace and support, but also fragment.

This installation visualizes the transition from a linear perception of time, coherent with the wire traversing the spheres, continuous and orderly, to an atomized and dispersed experience, typical of the contemporary paradigm. The current dyssynchrony arises from this rupture: the speed of networks has disintegrated our experience of time into a succession of unconnected moments.

Time is money is, therefore, both an affirmation and a warning: when everything is measured by performance and speed, time ceases to be lived… and begins to be weighed.
