Lune: Borrowed Light is a series of moons hidden within the castle. Made from local clay, the works are pulled from the land and suspended out of place, allowing the architecture of the castle to host these ghostly celestial forms. Dark rich glazes cover the pieces, catching and borrowing the light from the greater surroundings. These moons are placed in intimate enclosures, briefly bringing close a planetary acquaintance often dreamed about from afar. Lune will vanish when all of the light is gone.
