Enchantment 

Axion Seed view inside pentagon boundary

About

Enchantment explores the moment when two beings begin to enchant one another.

Two mirrored beings inhabit separate geometric worlds, each a pentagonal chamber glowing from within. As visitors turn the cylinders, tangled paths of laser light shift within and between the two domains, evoking the tentative moment when two beings first fall under each other’s spell.

Enchantment builds on Axion Seed, an exploration of awareness and self-reflection through interactive light and geometry.

Planned for: Burning Man 2027, Spellbound
