Spiral
Spirals, coils, springs, tendrils, helixes, let yourself be carried away by the movement of spirals...
The origin of the spiral lies in geometry where it denotes a curve rotating around a fixed point while moving away from it. In the figurative sense, it implies something vertiginous, irrepressible and uncontrollable. In art, the pattern has inspired architects, decorators, creators of jewellery and accessories alike, and more recently designers, painters, artists and photographers. Here is a variety of objects from every era.
