Nazca 2005
Cosmos:
the ordered system of ideas. Cosmic rays: radiations that reach
the earth characterised by enormous voltages and high penetrating
power. Energy and water systems channel the great power and mystery
of the Lines to the Nasca community. Trapezoids, Triangles, Water.
Reflecting ancient aquifers, Cosmic Community Centre creates a
contemporary hidden river system. Concealment before revelation,
journey from within to discover the majesty of without.
