This multiple work is based on geometrically refined neolithic Scottish stone spheres. Part water feature, part interactive sculptural intervention into the square. It consists of a seven meter diameter dome covered in approximately 30,000 stainless steel discs.

The split from the spheres appear to tumble and provides a fan of water which grows and reduces over a 10 minute cycle.
