The show attempts to locate contemporary human reality in the murky, haunted spaces between our cumulative acts of destruction and a shared atmosphere of grief and loss, while offering glimpses of inspiration in connection to each other and the natural world. How is breath tied to time and place? How do our everyday actions and habits co-create a vast cosmic phenomenon that echoes through the ether and implicates us in its return.
