The exhibition room is divided by the half closed curtain and the carpet into two spaces. On the checkered side stands a former studio work table into which a vigorous motor is integrated. It turns a massive steel propeller at such a high speed that it is almost non visible. Yet it makes a threatening loud noise and flow of air. It is so dangerous and daunting that no one staid longer than a view seconds even in the save are. So the work table and area of the room where unsuitable to visitors and the creator alike.
