The inevitable is an imprint of a micro-process of the consciousness and the body. It is an impression, a trace, a leftover, the comparison of the sensory and the digital inscription. It plays upon symbols and materiality, processes and assembly of experiences and images. It results from a sudden symbolic and experiential overlap.

It functions as a retroactive, visual diary or a record of an experience in a segment of time.

An inverted triangle is an ancient symbol of female sexuality, fertility, genitals, subconscious and the intuitive. In alchemy, an inverted triangle symbolises water, one of the four constitutive elements. In addition to all multi-layered connotations of salt, in alchemy salt is a symbol of body.
