The images on this page were photographed by Francis Holt.

This is a studio photo of the installation.  The sculpture is about 8' wide, 6' feet deep, and 6' tall.   It is meant to be viewed from the inside.  It is a quiet, meditative space and produces in me the sensation of standing in a quiet snowfall.  The ceiling is woven and larger contributions make up the walls.  Smaller, whimsical pieces dangle from the ceiling.  As you can see, all the individual contributions sent in truly did become a part of the whole, creating something unique from several hundred individual artistic visions.

Here are some detail photos:

 

This is the view from the floor, looking up at the ceiling.  This is my favorite view of the sculpture and reminds me of looking up at falling snow.  It truly is what I imagine it would feel like to curl up in a milkweed pod, the idea that was the initial inspiration for this piece.

 

 

 

I include this photo to provide a sense of scale.
