It is based on the 19th-Century German zoologist Ernst Haeckel's engraving of medusae (the Greek word for jellyfish), an image in itself, strongly suggestive of some sort of organic chandelier.

Fountains ( 1989 -1990) |

Several works made between 1988 and 1990, during a time when I was obsessed with fountains and water works. They are all based on fragments of architecture, as well as interior objects such as the huge ceramic-time stoves used to heat Northern European palaces.
