Inspired by the joy of spring, the Lucent Forest is composed of over three hundred branches ready to burst into leaf. Held within clear acrylic tubes, and organized in a grid to produce the effect of a constructed forest, the branches are highlighted as specimens to examine individually, or admire in their vertical composition. Buds and budding leaves appear magnified within their encasements, such that the unique qualities of each species can be enjoyed. Moving around the space, the tubes create walls, enclosures and strategic openings to view through to the distance and imagine what mysteries this forest might hold. This project was installed at the 2007 Toronto Interior Design Show as part of the Offspring Exhibition.
