On a redundant pier ninety-six artists from as many seaports have arranged port containers as a work of art. The Fountain of Time is the title of Ziach’s symbolic work. The container is fitted out with a photograph representing a selfportrait with water running over the face, accompanied by a plate of corroded iron and salt on the floor.
