Artist’s statement
A small band of wandering people found a narrow clearing in the woods, here the filtered shafts of sunlight fell all the way to the leafy floor. It was a small clearing and after much discussion it was decided to build all the houses on top of one another to leave enough space to plant all their fruit and flowers.
