You know when you're doing homework, your mother calls you and you go help her leaving everything as is, knowing you'll be back in a minute? Well, what if you - and everyone else with you - vanished in that very moment? This series shows pictures of an empty world, where everything has been left suspended, expecting a swift return. Humanity has somehow vanished, yet two figures roam the earth. Who are they? Angels? What was the deal they made? Was it that deal that wiped out the world? (Hetoimasia is the concept of the "Empty throne", waiting for the return of Christ; the world is the throne).
