LOS ANGELES — Winged sentries guide the way ahead when, suddenly, the path gives way to a dark forest. Lost among the wilderness, the darkness is blinding. Yet just as the crushing weight of the darkness feels unbearable, a field of flowers appears. Set against the velvety blackness of the background, the flowers glisten like jewels. All around, glimmers of light catch in the most unexpected places: in the swirling pattern of the pebbles, in the shimmer of the air. A blue bird sits perched on a trunk, while steady drips of water ring in the distance. What seemed to be a sinister landscape before is transformed into one bursting with light, and life.
