Title  Mind Universe


Concept
            Natural disaster is caused by a shift of nature to obtain equilibrium of the earth. Motions and forces of nature are inseparable. Its dynamism includes connerting, flowing, and changing things ranging from atomic structure, physical chemistry, human behavior to inner universe as a cycle of life linking everything to one. Based on thatheory of substance, I create a sculpture memorial using lines in the from of sphere to connect the inner oval that represent the axis and the rotation of the world around itself and the sun in relevant to magnetic fields in the universe. Inside the circle, there are layers of forms which are interlinked. I use wave lines to present what people called Tsunami Disaster. Everything naooens for a reason (Ituppujjayata) even loss of lives or others. At last, something rises to replace that loss.
