Borealis
(Special edition)
This radiant world of metal and stone
in ecstasy enraptures me,
and I want with frenzy the things that carry
sound and light interspersed
[Charles Baudelaire]
Particles, bursts of solar wind, pure stored energy that can wait no longer and explodes in quickly transforming and luminescent forms, structures, and colors. The Northern Lights are a visible manifestation of what lies far beyond us: waves, rhizomes, rays of light that tremble in the sky until they are lost on the horizon, spirals, and bands of radiant color –the luminous and mysterious forms of being echoed in these jewels.
