The forest was our first temple. Long before we built walls or looked for mediators, we had the forest. It’s the original sanctuary where we can feel the Source—or whatever name you choose for the force that moves us.

There’s a common misunderstanding that we need a bridge to reach the divine. But the connection is already direct. You don’t need an interpreter. You just need to walk slowly, open your senses, and let the forest hold you.

We placed hundreds of glowing “candles” among the trees to mark this truth. It’s not about the spectacle; it’s about the stillness. It’s about realizing that you can step into this embrace at any time and feel the guidance of the energies that lead us. It’s a rare sense of belonging—a reminder that you are already home.

This installation was presented for the first time at Sofia Lights 2023.
