The four phases are sub divided into seven stages.
The findings from the different Sources: mining, Genk, design, fashion and coronavirus, are organized following the alchemic structure.
The work conveys the alchemic structure, which is divided into four phases ( nigredo, albedo, citrinitas & rubedo) which in turn are subdivided into seven stages. Because the alchemic processes is about the conciliation of opposites, in the work this duality is present.

4. Conjunction - the simmering
5. Fermentation - refinement of matter
