Hand-cranked sculpture, with three wall-mounted components. A couple of rotating flat surfaces and a crank. The strips of faux leather fabric will fall over (each other) under the force of gravity, intertwining when the surfaces they are attached to rotate. The person who cranks decide on the speed – the crank’s relative size slows the tempo. As one cranks, the overview is replaced by a proximate intimacy, extending even to the auditory realm. How softly the looped faux leather touch when twisting their planes when turning.

The title alludes to the number of faux-leather elements, as well as the directions they assume.

Constructed from wood, faux leather fabric, linen fabric, a metal crank, drive wheels cut from wood, rubber cords, and more.

Occupies approximately 2.5 x 3.5 meters, with components about 0.8 meters in diameter.
