The artwork describes 3 “squiggly” lines that coalesce on Citypoint in London. The piece is constructed using 3 repeating modules that are clad in lengths of flexible PVC ducting often used in building works. The modules are arranged in such a way that they allow the public to interact with the artwork by sitting, walking over and laying.

The artwork is inspired by the non-linear reality of life. People make plans to go from A to B, and we often picture these plans as direct lines. However, the actual process is of a line that is irregular. Our path can make sudden changes or seem to develop in different directions at the same time. This squiggly line can feel frustrating but it is the part where we learn, grow and make important realisations of our journey.
