Crystal Waterfall!

For the Ramiken Crucible show I made a crystal waterfall — a solution with minerals dissolved in it was continuously running down the length of knotty rope, slowly depositing crystals.  The idea was that over a long enough period of time the crystals would begin to take over the form, taking control away from me.   I hope to install it again soon to keep the process going.  You can see the sparkles and some stalactites forming in the photos below.
