Description

2003/4 by Eilis O' Connell. A conical sculpture with mirror-polished surface, set in the centre of a circular paved area at the bottom of Bath Lane. The sculpture is placed off-centre on a sloping site, balancing on its narrow end, as if it defies gravity. The outer surface of the cone is 6mm stainless steel sheeting attached to a stainless steel framework of circular strips and longitudinal ribs.
