Sun Set starts as a speculative exercise with the domestic objects that humans have created to replace the elements of the natural world. In this case it is an artificial sun that pretends to emit the positive qualities that natural light gives us. In a world that is burning and where our exposure to UV rays is less and less possible, we must think of alternatives and methods for survival. From the ironic point of view, this object emulates the sunlight and sounds of nature, although its crown of beeswax works as a timer: when the space is too hot to survive, it will melt and will have fulfilled its function.
