A large green velvet brain anchors one end of a spiralling structure of hundreds of vertebrae, threaded onto copper tubing. At the far end, the vertebrae merge into a velvet drape dipped in hardened plastic. The work offers a metaphor for the ways knowledge and experience travel through and eventually become embedded within the body and the role of sensation, viscerality, and touch in the formation of knowledge.
