De Monte with Blue Notes
Performance during concert
Assembling, during a concert ("De Monte with Blue Notes", April 23, 2021) of a jig saw puzzle on the floor of the altar.
The geometrical design that progressively will appear in the puzzle, represents an ‘endless knot’, an ancient symbol
refering to the interconnectedness of everything in the universe.
