El terror al cielo azul es una obra de vidrio montada perpendicularmente a la pared e iluminada con luz directa, creando sombras que se proyectan a lo largo del muro.
La pieza explora la idea de un cielo sin nubes, en referencia al evento geológico conocido como el " Máximo Térmico del Paleoceno-Eoceno ". Este evento marcó la transición entre dos eras geológicas debido a un cambio abrupto de temperaturas a nivel global, con un aumento promedio de 6 grados Celsius que resultó en una reducción significativa de nubes en el cielo. A través de la obra, especulo sobre la posibilidad de que ocurriera un evento similar hoy, debido a los aumentos de CO2 en el ambiente. ¿Qué pasaría si un día despertamos y nos enfrentamos a un permanente cielo azul?

The Terror of the Blue Sky is a glass work assembled perpendicular to the wall and illuminated with direct light, creating shadows that are cast along the wall.
The piece explores the idea of a cloudless sky, in reference to the geological event known as the "Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum." This event marked the transition between two geological eras due to an abrupt change in global temperatures, with an average increase of 6oC that resulted in a significant reduction of clouds in the sky. Throughout the artwork, I speculate on the possibility of a similar event occurring today, due to increases in CO2 in the environment. What would happen if we woke up one day and were faced with a permanent blue sky?
