Trees of Life are designed to light up from root to branch tip, glowing through tessellated patterns of micro life elements (chromosomes, cross section of vertebrae) to create a sense of bark. The trees lead up to a 14ft tall heart that activates light and sound immersion in full color.
Participants must make body contact with one or more other persons to reach the activations that start the light and sound sequence suggesting that reaching out expands and turns on our hearts and grows life.
