A clockwork, installed at the back of a sandstone, keeps incessantly digging its pointers into the volume. With each rotation a little more sand gets dissolved from the surface.
The present liberates the moments from the future, before they disappear irrevocably in the past.
The transparent housing reveals the functionality of the instrument. The clockwork and four springs are moveably mounted on guiding rails. The steady pressure pulls the pointers deeper and deeper into the stone. Passed moments drop out of the memory and vanish in the vastness of the floor.
