The temps of treball, of the process of machines, the temps on which the contemporary subject has perceived qualsevol type of living or possibility, is the accelerating temps of the experience of modernity. That rhythm of life that the subject understands as a "treball rhythm", as a daily routine, has been internalized in such a way that this has obtained the temps of the production chain. A temps every vegada menys seu, a simple temps, of successió and of accelerated repetition of a mateix.
In a certain way, it could be said that modernity is going to establish a single production and technology time, a time based on continuity and speed. That is to say, the rhythm of production eliminates all that is not "serveix" that is not able to "come" or that is "impedeix" to continue producing: the affects, the emotions, the desitjos, all the things that cannot be commercialized.
The temps-capital and the hegemonic temporalitat are the concepts clau de la peça L'hora occidental  What proposes to manage this disfiguring temporality and re-elaborating the experience of linear, standardized and monochrome temps through a series of tretze drawings equivalent to each other.  anonymous people and disconnects  The people who during a week will trace different actions and movements every day inside the cities in what is troben; Each color represents the constant repetition of the mateixa action.
Each drawing supposes a geometric abstraction, composed of different colors that respond to actions and movements, in the dimension of the temps is a weapon of resistance to the established temps, to the hegemonic règims of the temporality, resistint to the temps through the introduction of a altre temps.
