Large circular bowl containing water and fountain (bubbling). Coiling forms fold back on each other, within circle of square cobbles.
The forms relate to the volcanic nature of the site, equating geological curves/flows and body of the earth with the inner workings of the human body. Bubbling water suggests a natural spring but the artist's original idea was for still, reflective, calm water.
