Sea and Mulberry Field

Project info

Sea and Mulberry Field is a light installation that shows the changes of nature in a cycle. It is inspired by the Chinese idiom ‘sea and mulberry field’ (沧海桑田), which describes the inexorable change of natural events, and how transient human life is in comparison to the machinations of the universe.

The window, another moment

The gate, through the window
Waves, close
