Lors de l'exposition "Environ(ne)ment", les éléments furent supendus du plafond pour former le lustre. -- The chandelier is composed of 105 teardrop-shaped elements, each of which is attached to a plastic cord. Each "teardrop" is made of acrylic, and in each one is encased either an organic specimen or a found object collected by Gilles Clément from a "Third Landscape" near the CCA Garden.
