- Description:
- A long spring, like a slinky, stretches across in a big backwards 'S' from the top left to the lower right. Wisps of cotton like little clouds float around it. The background is a bit dark, making the spring look very bright. It's stretched more toward the top so individual rings are visible, and more densely bunched near the bottom.
- Notes:
- Gelatin silver print from a series of three portfolios.
