A tiny segment of a very large installation, this image evokes for me beauty inherent in gracefully sweeping symmetries, marvelous interplay of light and shadow, and allusions to a fascinating experiment related to quantum phenomena. The chains here stand in for photons seeking their way . . .
On a simpler and more practical plane, I submit this as an homage to the winter solstice: I, for one, am quietly exuberant that moving forward for the next six months the daily ratio of lightness to darkness begins marching in favor of sunshine . . .
