Experimental, luminescent pictorial composition with a changing background, depending on where it is installed. Based on the fable of Arachne. According to the Roman poet of Antiquity, Publius Ovidio Nasón, in book VI of The Metamorphoses, the young Arachne (daughter of a famous purple dye from Lydia) manages to offend the goddess Pallas Athena, both with skill and technical mastery that he demonstrates by weaving, as with what he represents on the cloth: several of the deceptions that Zeus used, to obtain sexual favors from women and goddesses. Athena admitted that Arachne's work was perfect, but she was enraged by the disrespectful choice, which showed the mistakes and transgressions of her father, the god Zeus. Angry, she destroyed Arachne's tapestry and loom by striking them with her spear. Arachne hanged himself. In Ovid's tale, Athena took pity on her and transformed her into a spider.
