Technetium was used in early x-ray machines. It is the 43rd element of the periodic table of elements. There are 43rd spikes on this sculpture which evoke the layers within us as well as the connection between us which hangs in a delicate balance. Technetium was once the secret weapon to our inner world and the Technetium inspired network offers a supportive web of connections that holds us together.
