In the image, rubber granulate is mixed with water and charcoal from burnt cherry pits. From the centre of the paper, the mixture flows in the opposite direction. The circle, or core, appears to both leak and be held firmly in the centre. The image depicts movement and fixation, much like the tyre material, which undergoes a dynamic process in recycling before being fixed into a new material.

 

The artwork is part of the Art of Recycling concept, where artists are invited to interpret tyre recycling through their unique creative expression.

    The artwork interprets tyre recycling by bringing together cyclical movements such as breathing, the sun, and recycled tyre rubber. The process highlights the temporal connection between the invention of the tyre and the photogram, also known as a sun print—a type of photography without a camera, where an image is created as the light-sensitive solution darkens to blue where the paper is exposed to sunlight.
