description

This is a space & time specific movie projection in one of the walls of the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. The movie is a sequence of 30 12 hours DVDs with a candle burning. This giant projected candle burned slowly, consuming itself during the passing nights. Starting Thursday December 9th 2005 its height had been reducing until December 31st when it was turned into its minimum expression. That night (New Year’s Eve) at midnight, a human hand entered the frame to light another full size candle and place it over the old one. This new candle burned for a few more days (very slowly) until the first days of January when the piece was removed.
