In a grassy meadow, I created a white space with a four-foot ceiling opening that tracks sunlight's movement. A woven hair sculpture connected to my ear rested in the center. For ten hours, I lay naked and still, entering a meditative state while experiencing the changing light, temperature, wind, and sounds of nature. Through this embodied presence, I invite viewers to access their own self-awareness and inner sensations.
