Otherwise / Forest Transformation Seat Room

The bench in front focuses the viewer's attention on the moment by moment changes in
light on the copper, while another bench behind the wall provides a panoramic view of
the woods and pond. It allows the visitor to sit and contemplate. After the tragic events
of September 11, 2001 this setting was created to find solace. The 'Forest Transformation'
is a place of contemplation, a setting that reminds us of the restorative power of nature
and silence.
