A 4 meter high column consisting of 100 identical pairs of stainless steel crossing loops.

The twisting form of the sculpture is generated by a progressive repetition. Each pair is rotated by 2.5° and stacked upon the previous pair, creating a shimmering helical vortex. The overlapping curved lines fizz and swirl as they generate a moiré interference pattern. The polished surface reflects its surroundings changing as the light changes, at night it will be internally lit from the base.

NIAB are at the forefront of practical plant science, their purpose is to improve the yield, efficiency and resilience of crop production in response to climate change and rising population.
