The sculpture, including the base, is 10.6 meters high and consists of 42 mirrored stainless steel plates that rotate independently around a central axis. The lightest plate weighs 190 kg, the heaviest 520 kg. Together they make up Kafka's head. The maximum speed is 6 revolutions per minute. Mirrors are arranged on the 2.8 meter high base of the sculpture, they are intended to convey the illusion of weightlessness. The 40-minute choreography consists of 15 movements.
