Wall piece made of seven individual pieces. Each one a ball of coloured pulp with telephone wire running through each and skin coloured pulp on the outside. One of the balls has half-shed it's skin revealing the inside. Each one is on a steel rod letting it float away from the wall to create strong shadows. It has to do with communication.
