Time Machine, Is a sculpture made in 2023.

An Iron-made Ouroboros-shaped sword lies encased within a transparent glass chamber. The surrounding mist of saltwater, coupled with the oxygen-feeding system, engenders a highly corrosive environment, hastening the rusting process. In these extreme conditions, a chamber of Anti-preserves forms, causing captivating self-inflicted damage to its contained subject. Time seemingly warps within the chamber, orchestrating the transformation of the sword and bestowing upon it the essence of a relic.
