The installation consists of twelve discs, 1,20 m in diameter, Corten steel pedestals that rise slightly from the surface that hosts them; independent centers onto which surges a block of basalt just completed in the cubic form and 35 cm in size. In this installation, Mikayel Ohanjanyan evokes not only the ancestral megalithic site of Carahunge, but also the celestial reason that since ancient times, the ring of the sky has been divided into twelve sectors.
