‘A Good Night’ addresses the rituals associated with the alternation of waking and falling asleep. The silk peignoir—a piece of clothing worn before going to bed or after getting out of bed—has been dyed with a natural pigment obtained from meteorite ground into dust. The meteorite–in this case a mix of iron and nickel–weighs more than the earthly stones of corresponding size. It is what did not burn up during its short flight through the Earth's atmosphere. The meteorite in a person is that which does not burn during flight through the hot atmosphere of neoliberal reality. By learning to regulate the self, by taking natural breaks in action, the human species helps both—themselves and the ongoingly exploited planet to regenerate itself.

Simply silvered black soil brings to the mind the conceptual repertoire of gestures as well as the old farming practices that consist on the Moon’s force of gravity.

This artwork nods to the influence of the moon phases on the soil and the plants growth. It was raised from those nights when the moonlight is so strong that shadows can be seen on the ground. The surfaces are then illuminated by the ricocheted, specific, “dark” light. Everything grows better when the cultivated land becomes a kind of mirror for the lunar/cosmic rhythm.
