S2 by Santiago Calatrava

S2 recalls both the unfurling, dangerous tail of a scorpion and the internal chamber of a nautilus shell in an expressive, gravity-defying work. Wands of steel are held in compression by threads of metal. The energy of this work is palpable—as anyone who has ever held an elastic band in tension knows, that energy has to be used wisely.
