This sculpture is made up of ten long, stainless steel tubes standing upright in a ring. Each upright tube angles to the right and is tethered by one wire cable that connects the top edge to the ground and another that connects with the top of the next tube, creating a ring around the top edges. The tubes start to converge like a shutter but are stationary. In this photograph they stand on a snowy field under a cloud-carpeted sky.
