Chains of coffee beans are huddled in the center of a gallery with a wood floor and white walls. The chains are hung in an inner circle of 6 unroasted coffee bean chains, and an outer circle of 6 roasted coffee bean chains, with enough space to stand in the middle. In between the chains of the inner circle is about a foot and a half of space, and it is about the same distance between the inner chains to the outer circle which is spread farther apart. Warm sunlight shines into the space from a door behind the installation.
