Delve into the creative process, into the heart of existence and its composition of geometry, energy of light, vibrant colours, and the Classical Elements of water, fire, earth and air. Wonder at how nature exploits all these things in her myriad of creations. Discover how sound carries the geometric code in its waves of vibration that activate, energise and change as it moves through all of Her creations.
