Process

Carrying a silver suitcase, I walk from the snow into an experimental space.

I sit on a chair and arrange the experimental apparatus: test tubes and a timer.

A 15-minute countdown begins.

I start to weep and collect my tears using laboratory test tubes.

I repeat this four times, for a total of 60 minutes.

The tears from each quarter-hour are collected separately into four test tubes.

As time passes, the tears gradually freeze.

I seal and preserve the tears, then take them away.
