      Sun Garden suspends from the ceiling and moves with oscillatng motors. The soundtrack by Hideo Ono uses the words from the artist's poem.



SUN GARDEN

Enter the morning garden
damp
 quiet moist
Sun's red tongue
desire his only voice

Push back the shadows
hot
 sword's hiss
Lick away dewdrops
gone with a steaming kiss

Approach the pale flower
push
 probe caress
Uncover soft petals
open
 disrobe undress

Shiny wetness glistens
wary
 ever shy
Pink flower bows
to the burning sky

Lovers become encircled
enmesh
 together join
Love's full embrace
lips hearts loins

Slowly heat wanes
shroud
 dark night
New son will rise
born of love's first light
