𝗦𝗸𝘆 𝗜𝘀𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁 is inspired by the Takeo Town's ancient sacred Camphor Trees (3000 years old), forests and mountains where priests and monks used to train around this vicinity. Over the millennia, the locals continue this ongoing coexistence relationship between nature, human and the divine, become their cultural heritage of everyday life. This installation aims to create an imaginary perceptual space that blurs the boundaries between this relationship.
