So this is awesome:
This is the work of New York artist Jason Hackenwerth at the Edinburgh International Science Festival.
The sculpture took over 10,000 balloons, six days to construct and it is breathtaking.
It represents the artist’s interpretation of the legend of Aphrodite and Eros and the double helix structure hangs over 40 feet tall.
