Commissioned from the young Cuban artist Kcho, this large-scale installation (the title of which translates as "Everything Changes") had two components: a grouping of sculptures, including a barrel, a raft, an oar, a kayak, a surfboard and a small boat, resting on small tables formerly used in studio art classes at the Superior Institute of the Arts in Havana, and a room-size boat constructed from bookshelves found in open-air book markets throughout Havana, with shelves filled by the types of books that Cuban citizens read.
