They spread across the metallic grid various Little Inhabitants, as I call these momentary embraces between remnants of anonymous matter found in workshops and construction sites of cities. But inhabiting this reticulated ground with them are other different beings: semi-precious stones. Here, in this territory that I establish, a screw and a wood chip gain the same protagonism as a sphere of rose quartz. They become inhabitants as they live in relation. I reflect here on the others with whom we inhabit, more-than-human beings that we ignore while believing to live on the stage of History's protagonism.
