"Rainbow in a bag" is what one of my friends said when I asked her what she thought about this artwork. Indeed, the colours remind everyone of the familiar colour field.
While working on this piece, I saw the contrast between the white surface of the sculpture and the dark spot of the hole. I thought that a bright accent would be interesting to highlight this spot when using ultraviolet light.
At the same time, another contrast can be found in the materials themselves. To the touch, hard and dense gypsum gently transforms into a light and airy building foam.
This work has become a full-fledged manifestation of glitch art for me. Without electricity, this sculpture does not work, but with the lamp on, it starts to glow.

This is a mistake, accident, crash, failure taken out of the digital world.
In sculpture, we are used to perceiving the breaks and cracks as an integral part of the work. Unlike a digital error, which lasts for seconds, an error in sculpture remains forever and changing it will bring about obvious changes in the nature of the material.
