Tubular Hive

Description

From a temporary museum installation in DC; a massive dome-like structure made only of interlocking, rigid fiberboard tubes (pink on the inside). This dome starts circular at the base, about 40 feet across, and narrows as it rises 50 feet, eventually losing the circular form, as if starting to sag inward on itself up near the oculus.
