Bloom is a walking meditation and path of reflection, carved in a landscape of illuminated flowers. There are no tricks or dead ends. It is not about losing your way but centering yourself.

Each flower is hand folded with its own battery. Walkers are invited to take a light and light a flower in the labyrinth as they walk through—slowly bringing to life the space in the night.
