 liquid memory by ross lovegrove
 > for his contribution to the flexibility exhibition
 > ross lovegrove installed a rotating metal sculpture.
 > light is beamed onto the pendant
 > and reflected throughout the room.
 > ‘the object represents a suspension form
 > that is eternal in its unification of light, space and time.
 > its tough, vertical form is frozen into an elastic surface,
 > mirrored to relate to all worlds it inhabits.
 > in this context it becomes a gentle breath of optimism,
 > a beacon of freedom in an environment so
 > charged with dark emotions from the past.’
