A societal context of pandemic, wars and attacks and a scientific questioning on imbalances, are at the origin of this work. The universal law of gravity is exerted on all form of matter and this rain of bodies evokes a fragile humanity that falls and gradually disappears, in a slow motion movement. Opposite, a second part offers a more poetic and serene meditative contemplation of the fall of natural elements of the vegetation that evokes the immutable cycle of the seasons, this time that passes inexorably. The whole offers a reflection on our future and the one of our planet.
