Colliding Particles

This mirror conjunction, initially creates a helix but, as the displacement gradually increases, the form segues from a helix to a surface similar to that of the Open series. As shape and direction are determined by the angle of this collision, I envisaged colliding particles, making reference to this by calling a portion of an installation in Gallery Vistavka, Kiev, Ukraine, "St. Laurent's Bubble Chamber". The title referring to Stanford University's now disbanded Bubble Chamber.
