I "rebuild" the wall out of light materials. It appears to be suspended space: Every fifty meters I fix a plastic bag with fluorescent green tape on the floor. Above there is a balloon fixed with fishingline. From the ground under the sculpture I place some of the earth in a tiny plastic bag, fixed to my trousers. The wall becomes visible again; as it becomes lighter - I become heavier.
