My idea for the BBVA Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Awards artwork – says the artist – was to synthesize the eight categories addressed and, at the same time, to convey the ambition of all disciplines advancing together towards new terrains of knowledge. I chose the spiral for its symbolism in numerous cultures as an image of life, and because it is the optimal solution for growth in a limited space as well as the best way to represent continuity: the spiral expands endlessly outward from its point of origin. This, I think, brings the seven scientific disciplines harmoniously into play, to the rhythm of the eighth: contemporary music.
