This freestanding, mostly white and silver metal sculpture stands as tall as five of the six stories of windows in the building behind it in this photograph. The sculpture is made up of swirling white forms, like cut and curled paper, wrapped around and among silver rods, struts, and rigging-like cables. Four silver legs gather in a narrow spot on the grassy ground and angle up and outward around the collection of central, white forms. The white sheets are cut into zigzagging lines and straight slits, and then curl around themselves. Other material is nestled in among the white sheets and metal bars. This includes a material mottled with pale pink and dark gray, built up like clay rolled into coils and stacked near the center. A star-like, silver form flares out at the upper right. Taut cables anchor the piece to the ground and connect the legs of the framework. The piece sits on green grass before a pale peach stone building with reflective blue-gray windows.
