Its thin steel and aluminum tubes form a circle divided into two equal parts, each one crowned by a metal replica of horn. Slowly the arcs pull apart. When they are as far apart as they can get, they become a drawing of buttocks or breasts. Then Horn's […] arcs inch back together. When the tips meet, the arcs merge and become a circle. Then, three times, their union sends off sparks." – Michael Brenson
