What does light talk about? I asked a plant that once.
 It said, ‘I am not sure, but it makes me grow’ 
 – Thomas Aquinas, 1225 – 1274 Oak trees know. Their roots graft into one flesh so they may share mutual sustenance, benefiting the community as a whole. When one tree is in need, the healthy ones direct their energy in support. This goes macro with fungi as the underpins of terrestrial plants and soil. Their fiber optic-like mycelium likening a high speed internet connects life in the subterranean. Microscopic marine organisms form the basis of marine life on our planet and connect in exquisite systems or colonies. These one-cell plankton gems, our primary producers provide over 50% of the oxygen for the planet with light from the sun. Rich diversity and reciprocal sharing power thriving communities and environments. This light-giving flow has enabled all life to thrive for eons. Inherent potential realized moves everything, even light itself. 
It certainly moves me. My work is a response to this light. The interdependent forms and projects grow in a continuous heliotropic adventure, energized with every opportunity and connection. Marguerita Hagan
