This work intends to provoke philosophical questions about the risk of a global ecological catastrophe caused by humanity by making uncontrolled use of the technology created after the industrial revolution. Therefore, the planet was painted and placed inside a pendulum in order to raise questions about the fragility of our planetary home dominated by this technology. The electronic chips placed in rows represent the false sense of protection that a large part of humanity has when they absolutely trust in contemporary technological means as if they could protect us from any adversity. In addition to the elements that make up the painting, I reused a frame that had been discarded and was given to me because, in my opinion, it visually interacts with the interior of the work due to the chromatic harmony, but provokes the feeling of enclosure due to its three-dimensionality.
