Descension
Created by Anish Kapoor in 2014, this extraordinary piece has been installed indoors and outdoors at prestigious locations around the world. A striking exhibition of the power and charisma of water, the sound and sight of this swirling vortex have an almost mystical power to intimidate and fascinate. The perpetual rush of water, seeming to spiral endlessly downwards, hypnotises the visitor and hints at the sublime.
