"METZ" is my anachronism for "Middle Eastern Time Zone." Various timing devices are deployed in that part of the world to create mass destruction. I do not know what such exploding devices look like. My imaginary exploding timing device may look menacing but it is just junk from my studio. Old light switches, a mummified mouse, a wasp nest, a broken cell phone, ink jet cartridges and stuff boys play with during backyard wars create this composition. "METZ" is darkly playful piece on the horror of war.
