This human-scale work by Nacho Carbonell bears the function of a cabinet and bookshelf. The undulating exterior surface, made of wooden sticks, resembles an organic form. Inside, a winding, S-shaped metal piece supports the whole structure, with shelves placed across various levels from top to bottom. Instead of doors to close the cabinet, the viewer must walk around the work to see its interior either exposed or concealed.
