The artwork is installed in the atrium at B1, 1F and 14F creating an architectural vertical line.
The entire artwork expresses the cycle of life and never ending continuation of life and symbolizes the eternity and regeneration of all life.
Based on the idea of "art nouveau", the artwork is created in a dynamic way by combining the 1,200 year old traditional paper making and the latest paper making method with various modern processing techniques.
