Coil and spring installation

Coil and Spring is a permanent installation in the University of Exeter. The object is formed using the traditional silversmithing technique of raising and transforming a flat sheet of metal into a dished form, combined with soldering, etching, piercing, and patination. The object is an abstraction of microsporidia and comprises five raised forms suggesting the different stages in the development of spores.
