Indigo Dancers- in a Forest of light
Rosebud Centre, West Kent
(Bedroom Corridors)
Starting with rings of light just out of the ward’s elevator which cast an Indigo glow and holds you, line details of the piece create a movement that travels to the ceiling, around corners and down the hall, guiding through through space via the words of a poem.
