Caption: A 3-ton 'sculpture' that was found in a scrap heap at the Princeton Plasma Physics Lab, a U.S. national laboratory dedicated to science and innovation in fusion energy. The found sculpture is a prototype of an electromagnetic coil used in an experimental fusion device. Exhibit organizers noted that the shape of the coil echoes the form of a sculpture by the famous artist Henry Moore on the Princeton campus, titled “Oval with Points.”
