Dark Energy.

 I was reading about the possible discovery of what 'dark matter' actually is the other day and this got me thinking, as these things do....
 The other great mystery of the universe is 'dark energy' that makes up about seventy percent of the Universe causing the ever accelerating expansion of everthing and nobody has a clue as to what it is.
  This mystery energy is what inspired the design of this hollow form, I have it streaming forth from another dimension (Ok the opening!) and permeating the Universe in a great flow. It is funny where inspiration comes from sometimes but the Universe and as a consequence, the true reality of everything is something that is often in my mind.
 The form is from the same Sycamore stash I have been working through for the last week or two. It has three carved feet to keep it stable and a carved curved tail. It has been textured and then coloured with acrylics and the high points picked out with silver.
