Time Forest invites the visitor to enter a space deeply rooted in the four artifacts it contains. Using the sacred and the profane as a gradient, and the infinite turning of the Mimbres bowl to dictate movement, the chamber seeks to hide, nestle, or support each artifact in its journey through time. The energetic forces of the Tlingit Seal and intricacy of the Dene Basket push and pull at each part of the form, while the breath of an unseen body guides the visitor through the chamber.
