Markings that documented the movement of the sun were made for visitors attending the closing event in the evening:

Continuously tracing the outline of the sun as it enters and moves through the gallery

Reading aloud excerpts from the journal I kept while moving with the sun through the gallery. Performed at sunset.

Journal excerpts were read at the particular place where the sun reached the floor, and where the entry was written.
