The pulverized and sanded pumice stone creates a lunar, porous, and vibrant surface that absorbs and reflects light irregularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrinting ink—a material for mechanical reproduction—is reinterpreted as expressive pigment, while nails act as sculptural elements that pierce the surface and generate spatial tensions.
