In a forest clearing, the primordial spirits of ancient trees harness the magic of the Northern Lights. Join their ritual to commune with the wilderness, the community, and the stars.
​
From the towering pines of old growth forests to the celestial majesty of the Aurora Borealis, Wisconsin's North Woods is a place of beauty and mystery. Astral Relics draws on the colors sound and textures of these woodlands, transforming them into an otherworldly space. In its scale and enigma, Astral Relics invokes the awe and wonder that comes from recognizing our smallness in the history and complexity of the cosmos.
