Abstract

The continuum from Earth and Sky reminds humanity of his fortuitous origin; this means, everything remains in suspense. Against this telluric horror, mankind opposes a static world: beset by security and welfare, stranded in the mechanical order (labour servility), ignores the movement of the universe. This is a world conceived by and for weighty beings, closed like de paved ground with which they cover the earth of what it is not.
