Hummingbirds emanate from a transparent floating sculpture that contains a prism in the center, reflecting rainbows onto the surrounding walls. The video is projected through the rotating sculpture, and is projecting the shadow of hummingbirds in the center of the video landscape.
The spirit of the air speaks, chanting the hummingbird song who symbolizes the connection between Earth and the Universe for the Ashanika healers from Peru - the song VUELA VUELA that has given the show its title.
