I have been looking into the idea of detail, and have also done some drawings. Our forest will be magical if we have beautiful components which we can get to move!

"Caress the detail, the divine detail" - Vladimir Nabokov

"God is in the details" Ludwig Mies van der Rohe

Maybe we scale it up - think of our project as if microscopic. Geckos' feet? The structure of bones?

Ultimately, what would a tiny insect or a lizard experience?

Also, some beautiful subtle movement could be magical. Some shimmering or quivering or rotating? We could reference movement in this way i.e, joints in a hand, or some movement like a lizard walking.

In line with this is the work of Thomas Heatherwick. He makes the most wonderful details work on a grand scale. Have a look at these sites!

What if we make use of string/rope/fibre, and suspend our bamboo pieces off that?
