Description
At the center of the installation sits a lid-covered metal pot. Around the central pot an iron wire hovers around it spirally, ascending with the spiral expansion, until the very last -- the most outer -- round of spiral, of which is lower than its counterparts. Along the extended spiral, forks are installed sequentially, with almost identical distance from one and the other. When light is applied to this kinetic installation, the reflective surface of the pot's lid reflects some distorted forms of the standing forks. (Jerry Wu'23).
