Brookhart Jonquil

This sculpture by Miami-based artist Brookhart Jonquil invites participants to share their own water with plants living in an aquatic propagation station in the form of a prismatic rose window. The work draws from the future-oriented engineering aesthetic of NASA while following in the ancestrally-oriented tradition of ritual objects, and asks that the water be offered along with immaterial properties such as reverence, connection, purpose, and goodwill toward the world ecosystem.

The work situates the participant between the past and the future, right now, and asks them to make a small but heartfelt communal action toward an expansive scope of achievement.
