The place for gathering light

Steel, Silver leaf, Stainless steel wire, Paint

Ducking along a path through the dim, moist forest, there is a gaping space where sunbeams gather around. Raydrops from the sky pour down and splash into the forest, threading through the trees. It is as if a gushing well of light spills out nutrients to invigorate the forest.
Light is pooling together in this secret place in the forest.
