"Field of Light submerges the viewer within a landscape of 20,000 lighted glass spheres, each rising from the ground on a slender stem. This is the largest Field of Light expanse Munro has ever created in a rolling landscape, and is designed to utilize the existing pathways in the garden to allow people to wander through it and view it from various different perspectives.
