A green belt of tea grows in the
Higashiyama/Nisaka area. It is especially beautiful from
early spring to early summer. I had never thought much about
the branches because of the image of the scenery and the
delicious taste of green tea in my mouth. While inspecting
the venue, I noticed that the branches had been pulled out
after their role had been completed, I had a chance to see a
tea tree that had finished its work and was left with only
its branches. Its shape, reminiscent of fractal nerve cells,
has a strength and delicacy reminiscent of the roots of
living things. We gathered tea plants in the darkness of an
inn, where historical time is condensed, and created a
device that reminds us of the origin of life by shining
light on them.
