Nature Dreamweaver's "Ancient Heart" installation on the 6:00 keyhole portal side of the Center Camp Oculus. "Ancient Heart is a decorated and ornate manzanita/driftwood portal to center camp. It looks like it's been here for a long time and has been around the world and has experienced heartbreak, repair, and regrowth. It is a symbol of universal love telling a story where a golden age of peace prevails on earth. A peace that has always been here. A peace that is possible when we all connect to our own hearts and share that love with the world. Just beyond are two Mars Molecule pieces from the Mars-1 art group. "This installation will be two sculptures, one titled "Molecule #3" which is 9' in diameter, and another called "Strobilus," which is a large-scale, 13-foot-tall bronze piece inspired by the pine cone, a symbol of the third eye. Throughout history and across many cultures, the pine cone has represented enlightenment and the blossoming of imagination. I hope this conveys the symbolism to the viewer as an embodiment of limitless capabilities, with its interconnected woven spirals hinting at the infinite possibilities of the human imagination."
