ENCIRCLED ENLIGHTENMENT

In dark times, where clarity is diffuse, sounds are muffled, and nature waits for shards of light…heralds of light spring into existence to offer solace, balance and respite. Evolving to appear at pertinent times and places, personal insight is a consequence of their internal exchanges. Delegates of nature, bastions of hope, warriors of light… they offer enlightenment and awareness and sustain a sense of delight.

Encircled Enlightenment is an installation of 42 bulbous flowers rising from a watery bed, reaching pinnacles of up to 3 meters. These flowers illuminate and undergo change. Each petal is inlaid with optical filters that cast deep and vibrant colours on surrounding areas.
