    Tips

    September 3, 2021

    Each column has a vertical slot through which the sun will shine for 3-4 minutes at ‘true’ noon every (sunny) day, creating a line of light in the shadow cast by the column. The beam of light shining in the shadow of the column will vary with the time of year. This cycle links the six sculptures to the passage of time – celebrating the past, present and future of the Forest.
