Alserkal Avenue, Alserkal Foundation, Dubai, UAE

Fired ceramic and plaster items (clay bricks, wheeled turned canisters and plaster plates) are loaded to an operating conveyor belt by an operator. Items travel on the conveyor belt up to 2 meters high and then are left to a free fall at the end of the belt. Shards and remaining pieces are reloaded by the loop operator. Operation is repeated. Gradually a pile is formed on the side. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKFLWv3u654
