This installation creates an open space and time where we can share the delight of life within the universe. In collaboration with the experts and students from architecture, art and design, and particle physics, the “Garden” was installed at IdeaSquare, a design and innovation platform at CERN. When natural light passes through the silk threads that were dyed in Kyoto, a moment of fluctuation emerges. As a part of the whole architecture, it enhances an experience of observing an ever-changing landscape.
