MATERIALS	Twenty-one plastic corbels with self-censored illegible writing made of black Edding pen. Twenty-one crystal glasses intervened by the author.
CONCEPT	Work centred on the concept of Time considered here in musical terms, using the process that is generated in an action that concludes with fire.
DESCRIPTION	The work is made up of twenty-one intervened corbels, distributed and hanging on a wall. Above each of them is a glass from an action of the author previously carried out in the introduction to each glass, an illegible self-censored writing made on a sheet of vegetable paper, adding a Spanish letter with an ambiguous word. Finally the whole was set on fire, leaving the residue inside the vases which were then placed on each of the corbels.
EXHIBITIONS	This piece was first presented in 1989 at the author’s installation TRANSGRESIÓN DE TIEMPOS held in the Capilla del Oidor in Alcalá de Henares. In 1996 it was presented at the Museo de Bellas Artes de Santander in Concha Jerez’s exhibition entitled INTERFERENCES.
