Here, the unruly forces of nature intermingle, preserved on light-struck film emulsion and loop endlesslessly like events in the natural world even while contained in a structure intended for human dominance over Nature.

Unfamiliar color and light sweep into and literally illuminate vegetative subjects to supply visible evidence of a surreptitious conspiracy between the artist, her materials, and photochemical occurrences. This work is part of a group of related time-based works in the De Luce [On Light] series.
