Cabinet (Spiral) continues Sarah Jones's 'Cabinet' series, in which an arrangement in a shallow field undergoes keen formal scrutiny. Familiar ornamental objects are transformed into a magnificent display inspired by the Olympic torch and flame, drawing closely on the rich legacy of twentieth century Olympic prints and posters. Cabinet (Spiral) is also inspired by photographic history; in early black and white photographic experiments, fine glassware was photographed in order to examine the medium's ability to render clear materials. Here, Jones's vibrant palette of glowing yellow, translucent blue, and limpid green references the colours of the iconic Brazilian flag.
