In this action I use the Tirana Pyramid as a setting, a decaying building located in the center of the city and built in 1988, originally serving as a museum about the legacy of the former Albanian dictator; and which is sarcastically known as the “Mausoleum of Enver Hoxha”.

A urban ruin that has become a place of recreation for the inhabitants of this city; and from which I take advantage of its historical and iconic weight, to climb to its top and then slide over its structure to present an action that symbolically shows the rise and fall of power.
