Artwork theme:
A direct indication to reconstruct what is shown as fragmentary or incomplete is behind the architectural work, conditioning the viewer's experience of it. Thus, schoolchildren walk through a series of poles placed in a disorderly manner and bearing the fragmentary figures of a multiplication table.
