This work makes us reflect on the value of the art. The work consists of a normal cardboard box which apparently seems to be empty. Inside of it, the box has a safe which makes us question the monetary value of art in Prieto's typical minimalistic humouristic style. Here the safe is the object that needs to be stored and saved.
