The Victoria & Albert Museum commission involved
280 mouth-blown 28 series spheres cascading
more than 30 metres from the museum’s vaulted
ceiling. Copper tube suspension was introduced,
adding volume and presence to the piece. The intent
was to contrast the monumental height, symmetry
and austerity of the V&A atrium with the colour and
compositional awkwardness of the installation.
