The first function of any plastic representation in an image is to freeze time, especially photography. Tempo, in Italian, refers to the speed with which a piece of music must be played. The author photographs a frozen circular time, the measure of time as a tool to possess it, its representation has evolved throughout the history of man but the interest in dominating, stopping or accelerating it is still valid for the author, confirming the kindness and cruelty to which the universe submits.
