Farad, a title coming from the unit of the electric capacitance, includes a series of 5 works.
These systems are always working at a loss. I think they have something contradictory since their work is useless, their only purpose is to amplify a continuous waste, dispersion. They deal with the praise of something missing.
The installation works by a flow of a low voltage electrical current that, through cable serpentines, dissipates by induction between the two sufficiently close ends of a circuit, and generate an electric arc.
