Nacre

A Light Farm is an invented mythological power object that invites activation through physical interaction. When spun, it collects, cultivates, and multiplies, and returns the power of the activator. An organic kinetic mandala comprised of 3D botanic mechanics and fantastical pearly components; these are devices of sci fi myth.
