“Pisces” by artist Jason Hackenwerth is a 40-foot-tall double helix made of 10,000 balloons. Commissioned by the Edinburgh International Science Festival, the sculpture took Hackenwerth and his team six days to construct. It is on display at the National Museum of Scotland through April 14, 2013. There are many more photos of the sculpture on Flickr. Hackenwerth has more of his balloon sculptures on his site.
