DescriptionConjunction consists of a series of five ovoid-shaped vessels with multi-coloured, horizontally striped surfaces. The profiles of the vessels represent male and female figures and the vessels can be arranged so that the figures engage with each other in different ways. The stripes and ring-like projections that encircle three of the vessels also give them the appearance of planets or other astonomical bodies.
