The sculpture was created in 2024 and was exhibited in industrial spaces that already had a context of passing, the blending of the new and the old, and the representation of the snake as a guardian of secrets, hidden knowledge, and the proper order of things. This context can be reinstated in gallery spaces by adding bricks and concrete elements to the installation. Embedding the sculpture with symbols of the decay of the old world
