The work is a wooden panel, made by covering the surface with silver leaf and then cutting into it with a Phillips-head screwdriver. The first phase of the procedure involved the creation of a surface using the ancient technique of water gilding described by Cennino Cennini. The work is the product of meditation, superimposition, taking care. The choice of the Pozidriv-head screwdriver stemmed from the desire to establish a tie with a tool associated with building.
