  A group of eight pillows aligned on a base depict the changes of a picture from clear sunny sky to a dark stormy night. This progression emphasizes the unpredictable oscillations of the climate, but also creates a color scale that ends up dissolving the image, in a similar ways to the visual effect of fade out. Using pillows, this work also explores the variations of dreams; the transitions between pleasure and nightmares, between the forecast of a clear day and the result of a devastated landscape after the storm. Fade Out is finally a reflection of the big tragedy caused by the rain in Vargas State, Venezuela in 1999.
