| History repeats itself. Utilizing thin bamboo twigs, time is considered as the history of humankind, and is described by an endless continuation of arabesque patterns, which are woven in chaotic swirls. If we do not learn from experience, time will only go round in a circle and we will return to our original position. Fluttering on the surface of the many thin cloths and suspended below the large ring of chaotic swirls are the expressions of people around the world, whose lifetimes are shorter than the volume of each cloth, when compared to the history of the human race. | |||||||||||||
