Battiti

STRENGTH

MEASURE

SILENCE

THE BEATS

THIS IS WHAT I SOUGHT

IN A 1.0 mm ALUMINUM DISC

STRENGTH NEEDED TO SHAPE WITHOUT PIERCING

IS MEASURE

THE SILENCE BETWEEN THE BLOWS

4.6 PER SQUARE CENTIMETER

AND THE HEARTBEATS — 46 BPM

ON A SURFACE OF 3,846 SQUARE MILLIMETERS

The aluminum is hammered to the threshold of perforation, without crossing it.
Form emerges from the time between the blows.
