In Ictu Oculi

( Begiak hesteko artean )

Seven centuries made of stone are torn down on a single moon. Thus passes the glory of the world, in the blink of an eye.

The six-decade transformation of a block of houses, shown by means of artfully featured archival shots, highlights the beauty and sadness of human-made decay. In the blink of an eye 66 years pass by and a savings bank replaces a church.
