A sculpture, three years in the making, has been unveiled at Brighton's new Circus Street development, depicting a staircase that unravels across the side of a building.
Titled a 'Spring in your step' it was designed by Alex Chinneck and made from galvanised steel.
Following the form of a spiral staircase at its base, the structure uncoils as it rises upwards and outwards over Circus Street’s central courtyard.
Its three steel ribbons appear to burst apart with sculptural energy, introducing movement into the volume above the courtyard.
The artwork was conceived in direct response to the location and seeks to contribute to the energetic creative atmosphere envisaged for it.
Commenting on the sculpture, Alex Chinneck said:
“A Spring in your step took three years to complete, weighs four tonnes, is 25 metres tall, and follows a non-repeating, expanding and contracting helical form - making it my most complex sculpture to date.”
It's his 11th major public artwork in the last eight years.
