Untitled (64 Vortices) is a tank of water into which 64 vortices can be observed appearing and disappearing. The whole chaotic, unstable system constantly reconfigures itself as each vortex interacts with neighbouring vortices, alternatively stealing rotational energy or evaporating. Not dissimilar to a cosmic space-time warped by black holes, the work quietly keeps oscillating between stable and fleeting moments.
