An extruded gray rainbow, bolted to the wall by two silver screws through a tongue that extends up from the vertex. At the front is a rail joined at either end of the rainbow. The two arcs describe sections along the circumferences of concentric circles. A matte black teardrop pendulum swings below the rainbow, tied to the peak of the rail by a pink ribbon. It swings gently in the wind and spins on its axis, showing chalky white markings on all sides: a boat, a pair of crossed swords, a human skull, a dotted and winding line circumnavigating the teardrop.
