Plastic hose, used motor oil, hydraulic pump
Cenit draw a brief "history" of course that modern societies have drawn the only possibility for development from the mass exploitation of fossil fuels since the early XX.
Peak oil refers to the highest level of oil extraction that can be reached, and precedes the decline.
A small hydraulic piston pump is installed for used motor oil to circulate through a plastic hose that draws the outline of a city. Force mechnical refers to the forces driving global development today. The work marks the waste and the extraction and structural supports of contemporary civilization. As a timeline, Zenith is an end in the time of release and depletion of oil. After the total discharge of waste, the skyline remains a fantasy projected onto the wall surface.

Cenit takes its cue from the history of modern society, which identified the fossil fuel as the only possibility for progress beginning in the early 20th century. CeNIT alludes to the peak of oil consumption its ascending parabola, followed by a decline and finally the radical transformation of the economic system, and consequently, the world order. By way of a hydraulic pump, the mechanism draws a city skyline on a wall.
