Installation sculpture based on collaboration with mineralogists at the Natural History Museum. The mirror surfaces reflect the building and surroundings, dismantling and rearranging what they reflect. Inset images of magnified minerals are backlit and geological sounds from the museum's archive rebound through the sculpture. People can experience the sculpture by walking among the eleven vertical components. Mountain will be transferred to the University of Hertfordshire in September 2005.
