"The first time I saw it I thought it was something from another planet. It didn’t have anything in common with our common landscape. It was an original, brand new thing. The atmosphere of the house changed, the appearance of what surrounded us changed. And so did our socialization: we spent more time sitting in a circle, carrying on long conversations. None of us could conceive that an object could have so much power. On account of its shape, mostly.
What we were looking at was a round table made of leather. If you looked intently, it was as if it whirled. It was hypnotic – as if someone had placed a magnet on that table and we were drawn to it. We sat around it, laid our arms down and the leather morphed and we did too. We would test it with our hands far and wide. We would slide our fingers along the small creases that separated the leather segments. It was like playing with marbles on the sand.
At the same time, we could smell the earth of the countryside and the scents carried by the wind. Each of us would do whatever he or she had to or wanted to do, pursuing this and that thought, until at one point we were all there, around the table. We had been waiting for one another. We felt as if we were on the beach of a desert island where everyone has agreed to meet just before dusk. Now it’s as if I can see each and every one of us sitting in a circle like you do around a bonfire." Marco Triches

Is it there simply to reflect our image or is it looking at us? It envelopes us, searches for us, constantly questions us.
