　> 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.’
