The African origin story tells of how the ancestors of all plants, animals, and humanity began from a single source. This installation tries to create a dreamlike reality of this origin moment — a spatial and luminous interpretation of what we are experiencing in the past-present-future continuum. The viewer can both walk into or walk out of this creation event. Thus, the viewer becomes a participant, engaged in creation.
