The great speed and the shuttle movement as defining characteristics of the TGV, guide the proposal for a sculpture which levitates from the ground in a dynamic continuity. It is by a process of finding a way to integrate these characteristics that arise the analogy to the Boomerang, an object whose shape in V allows crossing the air, to exceed, to reach great speed and to return.
