The installation constantly generates waves in an aquarium filled with water and construction ground. These waves affect the composition of various types of sewer grates, causing disruptions; it is reminiscent at times of a “glitch” in a digital image. For the installation to function this way, the proportion between the volume of water and the height of the grates must be meticulously calculated. The closed system is designed for generating disturbances.
